Grief - but calling 'exec' is unlikely to leave the threads around of
the previous process in some unharmed state - surely it will just
terminate them all [ presumably that is what we want ;-].
If not, a quick:
if (!fork()) {
// close all sockets
exec (...);
}
Would presumably do what we want (?) :-) Hopefully we're not counting
on some configuration writer thread to write the config :-)
Anyhow, if the fd limit is 256 it's hardly going to be a big hit
anyway, so no real problem.
Thanks,
Michael.
