Little Snitch is a waste of time
Now there are 3 opinions.
1) I'm guessing neither you (nor Linc) work in (or even care about) proper netsec. I can go into a full explanation if you wish, but please understand that you're playing a statistics game when it comes to leaking information and/or identity theft, particularly if you still have Apple's Java installed underneath Oracle's.
2) An opinion is only worthwhile if you back it up with fact, which you've completely failed to do with regard to anything you've stated in this thread. You've also failed to dispute anything that dgerton actually said, whether that's because of a smug sense of superiority or because the explanation is too technical for you. I won't assume either there; I'll just ask you to understand that there are people who are capable of more than basic helpdesk troubleshooting (which ASC's vote system rewards), and that people with advanced degrees in Computer Science are, sadly, often too busy to help others out on that level.
Still 3 opinions, and you have failed to support your opinion with any facts
Good luck with your problem

I enjoy his Flare! because really we all are a bunch of idiots! Trying to get awarded on a point system for helping other people is great because it allows the newbie like me to TRUST and have FAITH in the PRIEST that PREACH sermons ……these are sermons…..many of them holy……and well we bit the Apple…so we are all SINNERS!!!!!! But , Let us NOT STEAL SOFTWARE!!!!! NAY NAY NAY!!!! IT's not NICE to PLAY WITH THINGS THAT ARE NOT YOURS!!!!!! Little Snitch has helped me to get into debt really! collecting all the software…..hoarding it …….like an OGRE………or a TROLL……I have ALL the RELEASES of OS9 and you can't take them from me!!!!

Jan 25, 2016 8:02 AM in response to dgertonby contrawise,I'm with dgerton, mostly. I got to this thread via a google search, trying to find out what automountd is/does. LilSnitch brought it to my attention - perhaps uselessly, perhaps not. Nice to get a couple of decent explanations of what's going on, and some of the surrounding machinery handling the exchanges. I learned something new, along the way, about the way DNS Servers should work vs do[n't] work. My thanks to those who took the trouble.
I'll give a yes vote to LilSnitch. It has wasted some of my time - but has also given me a more thorough picture of what's going on under the hood. And has provided some badly needed information a couple of times. I'll ditto the runaway Drop Box process. I'm not looking at Drop Box any more - kissed them goodbye.
