I tried using setenv() in my willExitPane: method, but the variable is empty when read in the postinstall script. Is there another way to do this? You must write into a known file name/path that is accessible to the logged in user and maybe root (if your script asks for root auth). Yes, this is a security problem. Be very careful that you can create the file safely. If not, a malicious hacker can put a symlink to / kernel there and the machine won't reboot. This email sent to site_archiver@lists.apple.com
