Go to this webpage http://lingon.sourceforge.net/ Download your favorite version (the Leopard version is very nice). Read the fine manual provided at http://lingon.sourceforge.net/Lingon-Manual.pdf You'll find the macports launchctl entries under "User Daemons" (assuming you have followed the instructions provided in most ports that need you to do a launchctl -w ...) 8) ---------------------------------- Chris Janton - face at CentosPrime dot COM Netminder for Opus1.COM _______________________________________________ macports-users mailing list macports-users@... http://lists.macosforge.org/mailman/listinfo.cgi/macports-users |

Right, lingon, that's the name I couldn't think of. We could write up something on our web site about using that. We already have a port for it... http://db.macports.org/port/show/4001 _______________________________________________ macports-users mailing list macports-users@... http://lists.macosforge.org/mailman/listinfo.cgi/macports-users |

Actually Lingon is only available for Leopard and not for Tiger.

I'm not sure I understand what point you're trying to make. If you
put anything in /usr outside of /usr/local, since the very first release of MacOSX the rule has always been "you're living on borrowed time and at your own risk" since Apple, like every other OS vendor on the planet, reserves the right to update any files it shipped. That is why MacPorts installs into /opt instead of /usr. - Jordan On May 29, 2008, at 4:53 PM, John Korchok wrote: > Hi All, > > Once again, the latest security patch 2008-003 for Tiger broke our > Apache 2 > installation by replacing apachectl.

Never mind on this - I just read the follow-ups. I still think this
is a really dangerous thing to do, but since the original poster realizes this also, I'll not belabor the point. - Jordan On May 29, 2008, at 7:35 PM, Jordan K.
