Do you need to support all versions of Linux? Versions which support NPTL (the new posix threads library) won't have this problem. If you do need to support older versions, you pretty much have to reap the process status from the thread that started the child process. -- Patrick TJ McPhee North York Canada ptjm@interlog.com .
