prevent launchctl from starting a anonymous process
That isn't actually launchctl
creating a new process; it's most likely dnsmasq
itself. If it fork()
s into the background, launchd
can't tell; then when it talks to launchd
, launchd
creates an anonymous entry for it. Make sure dnsmasq
doesn't background itself.
(The -
listed for the regular launchctl list
output indicates that the original dnsmasq
process exited.)
