If Little Snitch encounters a Unix command which has been started by an Application, it shows both the Unix command and the Application, e.g. Processes are matched by their file system path (where they are stored on your disk).Īpplications may execute Unix commands to do things on their behalf. sync your data to the cloud) or a Unix command with no graphical user interface.

Your computer acts as a server in this case. An incoming connection, on the other hand, is when a remote computer initiates a connection to a process on your computer. In the metaphor of the phone call, your computer dials a phone number to call somebody else. An outgoing connection is when a process on your computer initiates a connection to somewhere else. Connect directionĪ rule can match either outgoing or incoming connections. They are analogous to their connection counterparts. The condition properties of a rule define on which condition the rule matches a connection. If more than one rule matches a particular connection attempt, the one with the highest precedence is used.
If a connection attempt matches the condition of a rule and the identity check succeeds, the rule’s action is performed. I researched and got a general gist of system processes, long ago, but I wasn't bugged until.
Question: Q: APSD process with Little Snitch, 'non apple connections' strange : This is the recent network activity of APSD with Little Snitch.Henry Watson Fowler's Modern English Usage identifies five ways in which the phrase has been used, and each use makes some sort of reference to the role that a particular case or event takes in relation to a more general rule. 'The exception that proves the rule' (sometimes 'the exception proves the rule') is a saying whose meaning is contested.The filtering behavior of Little Snitch is defined by a set of rules.
