It then forks a child process. 1. Can the parent process fork a child with the database open? 2. If 1. can be done, is the database open to the child? 3. Again, if 2. can be done, are the ranges of the relations (##range) declared before the child was forked valid for the child too? Mohan Palat AT&T Network Systems
