I have a service (in StartupItems) which start correctly at boot time.
However when I log out the service stop ;-(
I have no idea, but you might have.
so I write this very test case which behave the same and quit
unfortunately.
[demime 0.98b removed an attachment of type application/x-gzip which had a name of DummyStartup.tgz]
uncompress it and place it in /Library/StartupItems
in case it was an evil virus you could recompile the C file:
$ gcc -Wall -o DummyStart2 DummyStart.c
the start it (either reboot or type: 'sudo SystemStarter start
DummyServer', follow by your password).
it will now run for 1000 seconds.
you could log out, log in and then
ps -auxww | grep Dummy
(don't forget the 'ww' argument in ps, that tricks me a while)
and then you will see, this StartuypItem owned and launch by root has
died when you log out.
I wonder why ?
Any idea ?
Any tip, link, whatever ?
World fate is depending on your very solution !
