Oh splendid monks, I seek enlightenment. I have a CGI script needs to spawn off another Perl routine which may run for up to 3 hours. I therefore need to fire up my second script in background. Easy enough I hear you cry - just shove a & on the end of a system call. BUT, it also needs to work in a windows environment as well as AIX. So the question is - how do I spawn off a process, without waiting for it to finish, in a multi platform environment? Thanks in advance In reply to spawning Perl scripts by awkmonk
