Hai,

how to set the socket parameters when the socket is created so that
its file descriptor is not inherited by forked processes. I am facing
a problem while creating a socket and then its descripotrs are
inherited by the forked process when i restart my parent process it is
shutting down because the port on which the socket is created is used
by the previous child process.

Regards,
sunny
