gt.m - transfer opened device to new job

[xbar...@gmail.com]

Hello,

how can I transfer already opened device to new process created by job
command? For example in network server application. Main process is
listening and for each new created connection from client is created a
new process. Main process has handle to opend socket and I want to
transfer this opened socket to new process created by job command.

Better to use the Xinetd daemon to handle this sort of thing....

Agreed. As Mark says, better to use xinetd to establish $Principal
for incoming connections to provide services. In any case, GT.M does
not support a parent process handing a socket off to a child process.
