[QUOTE="cptdondo, post: 1629180, member: 340147"] I am trying to run minidlna at boot. I have the daemon built, tested, and it works. I've been struggling with getting it to run at boot. I am an experienced linux admin but none of that knowledge applies to the way OS X boots. What's the simplest way to run a single daemon at boot? There's no equivalent of inittab or rc.local that I can find and my attempts at writing various plist scripts have produced nothing - no errors, no messages, and no running daemons. Right now I'm working with 10.6 if that makes a difference. [/QUOTE]
