You wrote about some curious things in this posting. I came across it by searching Google and I’ve got to confess that I am now subscribed to the site, it’s very great

when I paste the above referenced line I get the following response.

launchctl: CFURLWriteDataAndPropertiesToResource(/System/Library/LaunchDaemons/com.apple.mDNSResponder.plist) failed: -10
No such process

Also wondering why directory access has the bonjour checkbox ghost colored and cannot uncheck. I often see bonjour workaround in console when looking for stuff in my sys, thinking this just sucks that security on my mac has a flaw that may cause me problems. Any updates to this page or other way of disabling or blocking bonjour?

[...] The only real caveat with Mac networking is Bonjour (formerly Rendezvous), a sort of plug-n-play protocol that relies on DNS trickery and broadcasts in order to advertise and locate network services, like iTunes’ Remote Speakers, Bonjour-enabled printers and network gateways, and more. You might not notice if this protocol is even running – it’s not as chatty as NetBIOS, although it serves a similar function – but you can turn it off, permanently, if you want to. Just open Terminal (it’s in the Utilities folder) and read this article. [...]

OK, this unload it from memory and disables it from autoload, great tip. But other daemons/services, have a “required” line in the plist file, so mDNSresponder is launched at restart anyway.
Is it posible to prevent this from happen?. Will this services that have this “dependency” run without it?
It’s not a critical issue for me, but it will be great to have more control over this service.
Thank you!!.
