Re^2: Critical section FCFS

Neil, this would require a queuing application. Just wondering if there is another way which doesn't involve other applications. Thank you

I think you misunderstood Neil. Your applications that call "crit.pl" would not need to be modified. Rather "crit.pl" would queue a request and wait for the response. Then a "critd.pl" would read a request from the queue, do whatever processing, send a response then read the next request. There are several modules on CPAN that can manage inter-process queues.
