Not at all. You just fork after you create the file. I've also seen some OS's that let you copy a file descriptor from another process, which is a pretty cool way to handle it. I don't think there is a way to do that with Linux. --Chris -- [email protected] http://www.kernel-panic.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/kplug-lpsg
