  BSD Daemon   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-21)
In the context of Unix systems, daemons are process that run in the back ground attending to various tasks without human intervention.
``Daemon'' is actually a much older form of ``demon''; daemons have no particular bias towards good or evil, but rather serve to help define a person's character or personality.
The ancient Greeks' concept of a ``personal daemon'' was similar to the modern concept of a ``guardian angel'' --- ``eudaemonia'' is the state of being helped or protected by a kindly spirit.

 BSD Daemon - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
BSD Daemon is the BSD operating system's mascot, named after a daemon, a type of software program common on Unix-like operating systems.
Prior to selecting the current mascot, Puffy, OpenBSD used a BSD daemon with a halo, this image was used during the 2.3 and 2.4 releases.
Prior to the current logo, the FreeBSD project used John Lasseter's version of the daemon as their logo as well as mascot, however the project felt that the usage of the daemon as a logo was not effective enough.

 BSD History   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-21)
That was because the BSD systems were never released by Berkeley in a binary-only format; the distributions always contained the complete source to every part of the system.
The BSD originated networking code and supporting utilities were released in June 1989 as Networking Release 1, the first freely-redistributable code from Berkeley.
While this reintegration caused a short-term delay in the development of the various BSD systems, it was a blessing in disguise since it forced all the divergent groups to resynchronize with the three years of development that had occurred at the CSRG since the release of Networking Release 2.

BSD version 1.0, code-named Multics, was very slow and inefficient, but Berkeley couldn't figure out what to do about it, so the program was rewritten and expanded several times.
One of the most important aspects of the BSD project was its innovative license, designed to make it possible to share or change the code however one saw fit.

He was very relaxed about it (stating that OS X qualifies as a BSD derivant and all) and said that he won't claim any control over this character, being apparently different enough to be recognized as my own creation.
I also learned from him that the BSD daemon actually, in contrast to common belief, doesn't have a name ("Chuck" is an invention of an overly inventive journalist and not the official name).
