Each user has a separate Mach namespace (there's also a separate "system" one for StartupItems, or at least there was in Panther). You cannot communicate between namespaces. You'll need to use sockets (NSSocketPort) instead, which are not limited in such ways.

This has always been a problem - notably trying to communicate between startup items and user apps - and I think I recall someone at Apple saying this had been "fixed" in Tiger... but, presumably you're testing under Tiger, so I guess not. Anyone else know what I'm trying to think of?
