Well, I have  SIG{CHLD} = 'IGNORE', but I guess that isn't really sufficient. Thanks for the tip.

I've looked at that book, and want to buy it; however, I am a bit short on funds right now (hey, i'm a poor college kid, go figure). I'll ask for it for christmas; maybe Santa will bring it ;)

Well, they aren't too concerned with bandwidth; My roommate regularly downloads whole movies from IRC. The server itself barely handles any of the load; its peer to peer. Hopefully, the sysadmins won't give me too much trouble...

Thanks for the comments tho, I appreciate it :)
