how to implement multiple child "accept" within one socket..

[Won-Ho Kye <whkye@softforum.co.kr>]

Hi friends..!

I am implementing the server application which have serval child
process.
Like this

[parent]
    |
    +------+------+---+
    |          |          |     |
   child1    child2    ... ....

The childs are forked from parent.
I oberved if the each child accept the socket simultaneous,
then the "accept" failed..
Then I use the semophore to prevent simultaneous acception between
child processes.
Is there other efficient method?

Thanks for any help..
