 User and group accounts

If you’re using any of the following, make a note of any settings you want to continue
to use, then see the document indicated for instructions on re-creating the settings
after using the instructions in this chapter.

In version 10.4, watchdog has been replaced by launchd. To re-enable automatic
hardware restart, use the Energy Saver pane of System Preferences. To migrate settings
for services you added to /etc/watchdog.conf, create a launchd plist file and install it
into /System/Library/LaunchDaemons/. See the man page for launchd.conf for details.
