No, no, no! No need to apologize. I only replied since I was afraid I
didn't make myself clear and sounded as if I attacked you %-)

Aha, sorry, never read that one, but I agree that with that sentence in
the title these topics should be covered, either as a standalone chapter
or near the corresponding functions.

Oink, objection your honor. One's mystery is the other's daily work.
I've written quite my share of daemons and server programs, but that
might be black magick for others, so even if it's way over the head of a
complete beginner, for the average Unix-Joe this is still basic
knowledge and is IMO appropriate to be explained here too.
A perl beginner will post this kind of questions here, since he cannot
decide if this is an advanced topic or a standard problem, so things
like that should be posted here as long as they relate to the person's
perl code.

Again, no reason for this! :-)
I think we're about as much in sync concerning the topic of this thread
as we can be.
Take care - Mike
