Niklaus,

I just installed firefly server for my user (you don’t have to share it for everyone), and I hardcoded in all the paths in the firefly.conf file.

Then I create a FireflyService.plist file in /Library/LaunchDaemons (to make this run as root). The contents are:



Label
FireflyService
OnDemand
UserName
root
Program
/bin/sh
ProgramArguments

/bin/sh
/startup_script.sh

RunAtLoad

Where startup_script.sh contains nothing more than:

/path.to.firefly/firefly -c /path.to.firefly/firefly.conf

Hope this helps!
