I'm trying to use multiple processes on a DECstation. I've been able to fork multiple processes, now I need to have the processes access the same memory. If anyone has used shared memory after forking processes, could they please mail me some examples of how to do this. If there is any interest, I will post a summary of results after I have received them. Thanx in advance Chuck:

If anyone has used shared memory after forking processes, The key to this is to create and attach to the shared memory segment before you fork. That way all of the processes have the same shared memory segment attached at the same location without any extra work for you to do. -- Conor P.
