Figuring out how to get the daemon to output stuff is probably the way to go though.

distcc is a daemon controlled by launchd. Its config file is / System/Library/LaunchDaemons/distccd.plist. launchd supports redirecting standard out and standard error for the daemons that it controls to specified files. To do this, you'd need to edit distccd.plist.


The launchd.plist man page lists the XML keys supported by launchd config files. You could add the StandardOutPath key and maybe the StandardErrorPath key with values that are paths to log files. You could edit distccd.plist in your favorite XML editor or in Lingon (http://lingon.sourceforge.net), a Cocoa launchd config file editor.

Of course, you should save a copy of the original distccd.plist so that you could revert to it should you need to. I have no idea whether adding a modified distccd.plist to /Library/LaunchDaemons would result in it being used instead of the one in /System/Library/ LaunchDaemons. That might be worth a try.

After editing, you can unload and then load distccd.plist to put the modified distccd.plist into use. See the launchctl man page or Lingon.

I have no idea whether distccd outputs the info that you need, but this would certainly be worth a try.

Aloha,
Art
