Hi,

In a daemon loop, i am using accept() to accept
incoming connections.

while(1) {
if((fd = accept(socketd, (struct sockaddr *) &addr,
&addrlen)) == -1) {
  syslog(LOG_ERR, "accept: %s", strerror(errno));
  continue;
}
else {
 ...
}

accept always fails. What is wrong? i could create
socket and i got a positive integer value as socket
descriptor. following is from syslog:

Sep  6 17:20:50 devel pro[99227]: accept: Invalid
argument
Sep  6 17:21:20 devel last message repeated 204686
times

What is wrong? i am calling accept before fork().. So
i don't think child process affecting parent process.

thanks and regards...
