I'm not sure what Scott means by a non-system wide LoginHooks. There's no such thing? All LoginHooks run for all users if LoginHooks have been enabled.

You can enable MCX login hooks (and have multiple of them), and those will only run for the user/group/computer/computergroup for which they are set.


Actually you can only enable them for Computers and Computer Groups, not for users or groups. They're system-wide, always.


There seems to be a lot of confusion around the interweb about the difference between LoginHooks, LoginItems and LaunchAgents....

Any thoughts on where there might be a good place to put a wiki page about this that a number of us can fiddle with to get right? It is annoying that this information is so scattered.

Be a great article for http://afp548.com ....

We'd love to accept it if you wanted to write something up and I'm more than happy to collaborate on something with you.
