Two separate problems there: bigapple:~ root# port contents unbound|head Port unbound contains: /Library/LaunchDaemons/org.macports.unbound.plist /opt/local/etc/LaunchDaemons/org.macports.unbound/org.macports.unbound.plist /opt/local/etc/LaunchDaemons/org.macports.unbound/unbound.wrapper ...
(Often, MacPorts startups operate via a wrapper that tries to reconcile the different behavior of daemons written for other Unix/Linux flavors with the expectation of launchd that programs must not background themselves, close and reopen stdin, stdout, and stderr, etc; so don't be surprised if that's a bit hard to follow. I haven't always found the wrapper to be the best solution, but it usually works.) As for the permissions, I didn't have that problem: bigapple:~ root# find /opt/local \( -user unbound -o -group unbound \) -ls 180058793 0 drwxrwxr-x 4 root unbound 128 Aug 10 10:20 /opt/local/etc/unbound 180058801 8 -rw-r--r-- 1 unbound unbound 758 Aug 10 10:20 /opt/local/etc/unbound/root.key 180058794 0 drwxr-xr-x 3 unbound unbound 96 Aug 10 10:20 /opt/local/var/run/unbound 180058765 0 -rw-r--r-- 1 unbound unbound 0 Jun 17 09:38 /opt/local/var/run/unbound/unbound.pid but I have sometimes seen MacPorts set some of the groups on some of its files oddly (but using a group-id it created for one port or another). I haven't seen that recently, and don't remember the port or the details, so I can't say what the cause is or how to get it fixed. I don't recall it messing those up for files outside /opt/local, so I wouldn't worry _too_ much, although IMO it's not right. If you're curious about users or groups created, you can list them with dscl . -list /Users or dscl . -list /Groups and get specifics with dscl . -read /Users/unbound or dscl . -read /Groups/unbound etc. Or use the GUI: System Preferences -> Users&Groups; unlock, click Login Options, click Join, click Open Directory Utility..., click Directory Editor. Select Users or Groups, find the one you're interested in on the list, click on it, etc. Just be careful and don't change anything by accident. If it shows a lock symbol and "Not Authenticated", it probably won't let you anyway until you do that. > On Aug 10, 2019, at 10:12, Gerben Wierda <[email protected]> wrote: > > I am building a new Mac Mii Server, replacement for one running High Sierra > with Server.app that still includes Mail & Web.
