I think I've got pcntl_fork() working (see below). The tricky part is that pcntl_* functions can only be called in cgi mode (i.e. from the command line). One thing that is puzzling is that $argv[0] equals 'fork.php' in sleep.php. I haven't yet tested to see if this works on Windows. You mention Windows--are you saying that this would probably fail on Windows 2003 Server? (My target platforms are Win 2003 Server and CentOS Linux)

Doh! Yes, this doesn't work on Windows: pcntl_* functions are not defined. This type of forking is an interesting concept, though.

see http://us2.php.net/manual/en/ref.pcntl.php:

Installation

Process Control support in PHP is not enabled by default. You have to compile the CGI or CLI version of PHP with --enable-pcntl configuration option when compiling PHP to enable Process Control support.

>>> Note: Currently, this module will not function on non-Unix platforms (Windows).
