[MacPerl] running 2 Perl processes at once



Hi Folks,

I'm interested in doing the following...

I'm running Matt Wright's WWWBoard on a website and would like to add a
private feature that notifies the original poster of a response based on
a restricted followup user name.  I can see all the variables I have to
play with... but I think what's giving me trouble is determining how to
accomplish both the wwwboard process and the mail process in parallel. 
I've tried working with fork( )... and waitpid( ) ...but it ain't
happening.  

If someone could let me know what I have to look into to accomplish
this... or what some of the issues are I should be aware of I'd
appreciate it.
