Webb: If you check out my myadmin script at ftp.cheapnet.net/pub/myadmin
you will see where I do a forking pipe open
and use print to print commands to the mysql program. This sounds like
what you want to do. For the unix domain socket, its just like a tcp
socket, you just pass 'AF_UNIX' instead of 'AF_INET' to the socket
function. If you want to talk about that internship, email me directly.
We might have some stuff you can do.
