On my macbookpro OSX 10.6.8 even though I always set network preferences as locked, every time I shutdown the computer and log back in the NETWORK PREFERENCES are unlocked. If I make a change to the network prefs while shown as "unlocked" I am still prompted to enter my computer's main password? If the network prefs are unlocked, why do I have to enter a password? If I open network prefs and immediately click Lock then if I decide to change from wifi to ethernet I am prompted to enter my computers password?
