Dear sir, dear madam, dear all,
I recently discovered the existence of "authsight" ( http://
www.macosxhints.com/article.php?story=2006120918170984 and http://
www.zdziarski.com/projects/authsight/ ), a Daemon that enables the
user to track failed login attempts by taking an iSight picture of
the person who enters a wrong password (and then possibly e-mailing
it). Unfortunately, authsight stopped working with Mac OS 10.4.10 (it
only works after the login window has been successfully passed [after
some modification]), and so I wonder if it is due to any changes in
the way launchd handles files. I noticed on the "launchd-dev"
archives a few e-mail exchanges about resource limits, could that be
related? If so, I will gladly wait Leopard.
Otherwise, I'll probably try to see about StartupItems, if they will
get it to work somehow.
In the meantime, any thoughts?
Best regards,
Peter Craddock

I looked in the logs of this mailing list and saw no mentions of any of the
ports (to other OS) of launchd. I would like to know if this has been ported
to GNU/Linux ever. i know there is an openbsd port.
