Hi Robert,

So why not install a port or a pipe or something between your daemon and the part that is around all the time? then the logging could happen with the root process and the daemon would be more lightweight.

Thanks for your reply, Jerry.

I need my BOA runs as root. This system is for monitor
application usage. The BOA is tracking all user
actions and it is writing log files with that
information. If it runs as the login user, he could
read or delete those log files ... or to kill the
process.

What's the best way to do something like that?

Thanks in advance, Jerry ...
Regards
