I have an assignment to do an applicaiton that must communicate on three different TCP ports... I was wondering if I could run a daemon that would create three child processes, one for each of the tcp ports? Then have the daemon run any time there was communications activity on any of the ports The daemon must translate the data coming in any one of the ports to a protocol acceptable to the port the data is to be sent to. Any ideas?. -- Gerald Waugh http://www.frontstreetnetworks.com Front Street Networks LLC - 203-785-0699 229 Front Street, Ste. #C, New Haven CT, 06513-3203
