That is intentional. What you are running into is how we organize our Mach bootstrap namespaces. You need to refactor your code such that communication is _always_ initiated from a client living within a user's login session. A daemon should never try to initiate communication _to_ a user. A daemon should only answer requests from processes within sessions. Hello, I'm having problems establishing IPC communication between my test daemon and a non root app (which for now is a plugin). The means of communication is CFMessagePort. My app has no problem sending data to the daemon, but my daemon cannot open a remote port which the application created. When I run the daemon under my username (and is thus not run under root), the daemon can open the remote port which my app created with no problems, and send notifications.
