Killing a daemon process


  • Subject: Killing a daemon process

Hi All,
  My application changes some of the config files for a daemon process.  In order for the changes to take affect I need to stop and restart the process.  The way I have it working now is I open the .pid file get the number and run the kill command through AuthorizationExecuteWithPrivileges().
  The problem is on older OS X versions (10.3.4) this .pid file does not exist.  Is there an easier way to kill a root process, or get the PID for it?

Thanks in advance,
Kris
