The documentation is fairly thorough on which systems are affected just by reading the supporting information on Apple's website regarding the update. If it's at all confusing, I'd recommend the reboot option until you get a better handle on BSD systems in general, the Darwin system in particular, and understand how the init system works. Perhaps this link to the ADC documentation would be helpful: http://developer.apple.com/documentation/MacOSX/Conceptual/ BPSystemStartup/Tasks/ManagingStartupItems.html -- Chris
