OK, here comes a followup to the last question! I am using wait() now to reap the defunct children, and it seems to work. There is a small problem, though... when I use telnet to connect to the server, and the socket is closed, telnet doesn't give me the "Connection closed by foreign host." message. IT just... HANGS. How do I close off the connection so that telnet will recognize it has been shut down, and exit? -- Gary A.
