Script to turn On-Access scanning off/on

Georgia

Hi folks

Can anyone help me with a script to stop or start the InterCheck process on a Mac?

In short, I'm wanting to script On-Access Scanning to be off at the start of a backup (to improve performance) and restar when the backup finishes.

Thanks in advance

Georgia

    Hi,

    An administrator's password can be used in a shell script .  So in your example:

    do shell script  "echo <password> | sudo -S launchctl unload -w /Library/LaunchDaemons/com.sophos.intercheck.plist"

    Hope that's useful.
