[comp.sys.sun] X.25 question

stailey@iris613.gsfc.nasa.gov (Ken Stailey) (11/14/89)

I know that it is possible to have child processes inherit X.25 virtual
circuits.  But is it (how is it?) possible for VC's to be passed to
"sibling" processes?

By means of the normal IPC, with the sendmsg(2) system call of course.
