They won't, wrong direction. Instead, why blocking SIGCHLD and getting to possible critical races? An simpler alternative seems to set up signal handlers for SIGALRM and SIGCHLD (before forking), then fire alarm(2) (or ualarm(2)) and simply sigprocmask(2) for one of them to happen? -- Oron Peled Voice/Fax: +972-4-8228492 [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://www.actcom.co.il/~oron Can you sum up plan 9 in layman's terms?
