Mac OS X service runs as nobody rather than specified user
Hello, On a Mac running OS X 10.6 Snow Leopard I have a file org.apache.tomcat.plist in /Library/LaunchDaemons. It is owned by root. When I load the plist using launchctl the program runs as user "nobody" rather than user "_tomcat" as specified. What can I do to have the program run as _tomcat?
Thank you.
Thank you.
