Internet Config from a daemon


  • Subject: Internet Config from a daemon

I have an agent which collects system information for asset management. Among the information it collects is the user's name, email addresss & SMTP server, home page, default browser & email program:

<CT:setting name="Name" value="Mike Cohen" />
<CT:setting name="SMTPHost" value="mail.bellsouth.net" />
<CT:setting name="HomePage" value="http://my.excite.com/"; />
<CT:setting name="Email" value="email@hidden" />
<CT:setting name="Browser" value="Camino" />
<CT:setting name="Mailer" value="Mail" />
<CT:setting name="Proxy" value="blueg3.homeip.net:81" />
<CT:setting name="UseProxy" value="false" />

If I run the agent manually from the terminal, it's able to return all of the correct information, but none of the user-related info is available when actually run as a daemon.

Is there any way I can have internet config obtain the settings either for the currently logged in user or the machine owner? I don't see any way to obtain that information with SCF rather than IC.
