Neil,
I posted to the apple site asking if anyone could
recommend the 'correct' place to edit these settings.
I don't think a change like this would survive a
system update.....
But it was the only way I got the settings to 'take'.
It deserves to be mentioned in the docs that this is
necessary at least as far as 10.3.1 (osx).
