Not exactly.

My server will listen on some socket to accept connections from clients on well 
known port. When client connect, server will accept connection and exec 
external binary (fork/exec). This external binary open another local socket and 
lent know main server to know it is ready by sending its path on stdout. When 
server gets this socket, it open it and from this point server acts as active 
proxy between client and external binary.

If all external binaries can be spawned onece at start, it is simple. But 
fork/exec plus initialization in external binary is not cheap operation. So i 
can not simply call fork followed by exec and waitpid inside main loop. It will 
block another clients. 

So i hope i can fork/exec in another thread. But i do not know if it is safe ;)

Have a nice day!

Pete
