Could you give me a hint, why do I get an EPERM error from sysctlbyname() for a write attempt to a sysctl of a type: SYSCTL_PROC ( _kern, OID_AUTO, my_name, CTLTYPE_OPAQUE | CTLFLAG_WR | CTLFLAG_ANYBODY | CTLFLAG_KERN, 0, 0, sysctl_handler, // my handler "S", "" ); The sysctl is registered from within a kext. I get EPERM error for non-root processes, while it works fine for root processes. Shouldn't CTLFLAG_ANYBODY flag make it possible for non-root processes to write to the sysctl? Thanks in advance, - Maxim. _______________________________________________ Do not post admin requests to the list. They will be ignored.
