    hi, thanks for consulting the crystalball. I cant post the code ... but here is a better explanation.
    I have a file that contain list of dirs to ftp.
    I have this script to start one thread per dir.
    But this affects the bandwidth, so wanted only two threads at a time.

    Now that i already have a script that generates thread for each dir, I want to know how to modify script to limit only two threads at a time.
    That is my script shud generate a two threads for ftp'ing 2 dirs at a time, and when that finishes generate two more for next 2 dirs... & so on

    I have currently solved the problem by using a subroutine that creates just two threads at a time (& i pass two dirs to this sub).


    Anyways, Thanks
