Didn't think so. > You might need to write a daemon that the Perl > slaves talk to using IPC, > and have the daemon maintain a single handle. > I think the best option (after additional thought) is to write a server that mantains the lifetime of the handle AND it's use and just to return the relevant data to the slaves. It would just have to maintain a thread pool the same size as the number of slaves - to be efficient. __________________________________ Do you Yahoo!? Yahoo!
