Internet stopped working aftert inputting command

[xxfury2xx]

So I was reading this PDF file from the NSA on how to harden OS X. After inputting a command into the terminal that was supposed to turn off Bonjour, my internet stopped working.

Here is the command:

sudo defaults write /System/Library/
LaunchDaemons/com.apple.mDNSResponder
ProgramArguments -array-add
"-NoMulticastAdvertisements"

How can I undo this command?

Thanks.

Try this taken from http://support.apple.com/kb/HT3789?viewlocale=en_US :-

sudo nano "/System/Library/LaunchDaemons/com.apple.mDNSResponder.plist"

then

if it exists remove the line <string>-NoMulticastAdvertisements</string>

I tried this but I'm getting quite a bit of gibberish (symbols like: @^$). Nothing like what the apple help document looks like, so I have no idea what it is I should edit.

Would I be able to put my 10.6 disc in and repair the file somehow?

What were you trying to do?

Following instructions in an article on how to make OS X more secure. I just didn't realize how important Bonjour is, or the ramifications of messing with this file. Lesson learned.

I don't think I would trust the NSA for information on how to make my computer secure.

It's probably some secret code that allows the government full uncontrolled access to your computer!

Maybe someone in the NSA took a bribe from Microsoft?
