Are you running it from a CLI, or as a daemon? Or are you talking about launching the daemon from a CLI? Making a PHP script act as a daemon is pretty straightforward. Since the script can pass data through stdio, you can run a daemon that gets launched from inetd (or equivalent). If you want the script to accept TCP socket connections, a close read of http://www.php.net/sockets should help to dispel the fog. The page even includes a pair of client and server script examples. In other words, RTFM. -- Paul Chvostek <paul@it.ca> Operations / Abuse / Whatever it.canada, hosting and development http://www.it.ca/
