I've been having some strange connection issues and I want to re-configure my Network settings and Locations from scratch. This is for 10.4.11 PPC

I have found:
/Library/Preferences/SystemConfiguration/NetworkInterfaces.plist
/Library/Preferences/SystemConfiguration/com.apple.nat.plist
/Library/Preferences/SystemConfiguration/com.apple.airport.preferences.plist

/Library/Preferences/com.apple.networkConfig.plist
/Library/Preferences/com.apple.sharing.firewall.plist

Did I miss any?

This one seems like it might be Network related too from peeking at the content in TextWrangler:

/Library/Preferences/SystemConfiguration/preferences.plist

Trashing these files let allowed me to re-create by Network Locations.
