I have a problem with threading. I use fork() so my app listens for
connections from a remote host, accept() it, forks, the parent loops and
closes the sockfd from the child and listens again:

  for(;;)
  {
   if(sockfd!=(int)NULL) close(sockfd);
   sockfd = accept(sockfd2, (struct sockaddr *)&address, &len);
   if(pid=fork()) break;
  }

Now it's telling me this error: child died before initialization..
Am I doing something wrong here ?
