If it's TCP, have you considered ident (RFC 1413)? Else faking up something equivalent out of something like lsof? Quinn, my MacOS 10.5.8 machine is not running an ident daemon. Does Apple have a preferred implementation? Regards, James.

I knew this was coming ;)
We police network connection in a similar manner to Little Snitch. Network connections can be either denied, allowed, or up to the user to decide in an interactive manner.
For a given process making a connection, we ask the corresponding user that owns the process. However, no logged-in users owns daemon or anything above a login session.
We mean to allow, if the user wants to, to redirect questions about connections made by those processes to be redirected to the current logged-in (admin) user.

Right. But what decisions does your daemon make based on the current active login?
