Gretings dear monks!!

I was re-using the code getservertype2.pl by some monk here around, on a w2k activeperl 5.8 to get the output of system call via rcmd of several machines.
The code never print "Parent exiting...\n" WHY ??(the original code print it)
I have to put the line sleep 1 in the sub 'cause the script was not waiting for all the pseudo-process
I never experimented forks 'cause i'm forced to work on w2k so maybe i'm doing some trivial error 
#!/usr/bin/perl -w
use strict;
$|=1;
my @ip qw (192.168.0.1 192.168.0.2 192.168.0.3)
my $kid;
foreach my $host(@ip)
{
    next if $kid = fork;
    die "fork: $!" unless defined $kid;
    & doit ($host);
    exit;
 }

1 while wait != -1;
print "Parent exiting...\n";
exit;

sub doit {
    my $server = shift;
    open RCMD, "rcmd \\\\$server ipconfig|";
    while (<RCMD>){if ($_=~/Executing/){print "$_\n";}}
    close RCMD;
    sleep 1;
}
