bootstrap_check_in() doesn't require root privileges. It only requires that you be advertising the named service in your launchd.plist.
Correct me if I'm wrong, but the plist is static, and needs to be installed with root permissions by an installer. How would we generate a plist with a dynamic service name without root permissions? Trying to coerce bootstrap_check_in() and generating a file on disk for this purpose seems like a terrible hack to me.
Put it in ~/Library/LaunchAgents. launchd has per-user variants. Or is there some reason this job needs to run in a privileged context? -- Damien Sorresso BSD Engineering Apple Inc. _______________________________________________ Do not post admin requests to the list.
