OK, this is what I was after. I did not have to change any of this for
7.3, but now 7.4 does not work unless on a standard OS X installation
unless the user modifies these system settings. I can live with it, but
I was hoping it might be a bug that could be resolved before the final
7.4. Every person that installs on OS X is going to run into this.
Tracking it down and understanding what you have to change is not
simple for us OS X users that are not familiar with Unix :).

Best,

John DeSoi, Ph.D.
