Yes, I tried a few tests using this approach and I can, with some effort, create definitions such as DAEMON_IN_STDLIB or DAEMON_IN_UNISTD, etc. I'm convinced now this method is overly complex and rather brittle.... I think the thing to do is a) include both headers and be done with it or b) code a small daemon function myself given that some unices may not have it. Thanks for your response. Phil
