hi, list,
I have a task that a cmd-line utility should be launched when user
login window on OSX 10.3.9. this cmd-line utility bind to a socket port and
listen message from low-level server. I means that the cmd-utility will not
quit until the user logout. acutally, I know I should use launchd method to
implement this feature in 10.4 or later . but in OSX 10.3.9, I have
encountered some problems.
At first, I planned to use login Items, add item in the
loginwindow.plist in the user's directory. I can add the cmd-line utility to
the login item list of current user when the user login window. but one
terminal (console) popup every time. this is a big problem, so
unsatisfied for me, I need it to run as a daemon.
Second, i use the unrecommended way : add a plist file to the path:
/etc/mach_init_per_user.d directory. but it seems not work. what should i do
anything else?
I am sorry that if i put this mail in a wrong list. Any comments will
be appreciated. Thanks.
Andrew
