I just wrote up my experience with starting services at boot time on Darwin and OS X systems: if anyone has any amendments or <gulp> corrections, please let me know.
http://paulbeard.no-ip.org/movabletype/archives/000128.html#000128 I think I like this way of handling services; there seems to be one per flavor of *NIX, so there are lots of choices. The scripts only seem to start services, not stop, restart or any other options. There are pidfiles, in /var/run and /sw/var, so I guess you could hook those in: wonder why that isn't already in there? -- Paul Beard / 8040 27th Ave NE / Seattle WA 98115 / paulbeard [at] mac [ dot] com / 206 529 8400 http://paulbeard.no-ip.org/movabletype ...
