Launch Daemon Best Practices?

Subject: Launch Daemon Best Practices?
From: Karl Moskowski <email@hidden>

I'm working on a utility that has to be running even if no one is logged in. A bit of research leads me to think I should implement it as a launch daemon, with a separate configuration UI.

Am I on the right track, or is there a better approach? Any pointers to sample code?

I assume I'm going to have to get the GUI to write settings to / Library/Preferences/, and notify the daemon of to reload changes via distributed objects. Is it possible to get NSUserDefaults to write there (instead of ~/Library/Preferences/)?

Thanks.

--Karl.
