Some people seem to be looking for the answer to the question,
" What is zzInterix?" - They googled, found my blog, but I have
no answer. I' m so interested in it too.
Yeah, I know, /usr/sbin/zzInterix is nothing like " Interix kernel" ,
only an userland daemon. I killed zzInterix but felt no harm.
As far as I truss(1)ed, it only sleeps and wakes periodically.
But question remains: Why zzInterix is needed?

It does a number of startup actions.
By it getting started it invokes the subsystem to start.
Tehn the /usr/sbin/init starts up.
Then the things such as daemons, sendmail, syslog & crons jobs can get to work at boot time. You can see some of the stuff in the /etc/rc2.d directory (don' t delete the stuff). There' s a man page on init(1) you can read. Somewhere there' s a document describing this in more detail but I can' t seem to find it right now.
Let it keep running.
