Thanks for the reply.

The port is free. The code server.pl works fine when i run perl server.pl and close the service name "sajan".

netstat -a |grep 7890 -> resulted nothing,means its free.

The main deal i am trying here is the server to continuously run the server.pl code as daemon. Any alternatives than xinetd or any points where I should proceed ?

If it is linux, I would look into inetd/xinetd. If it's Solaris, I'd recommend using an SMF service. There are probably plenty of daemon modules around, but I've never used any of them. As always in Perl, there is more than one way to do it.	[reply]
