[OpenSIPS-Devel] [OpenSIPS-Users] About daemonizing of opensips

[SAMEER KUMAR]

Dear,

Try to open *main.c* in opensips source code and you will find a variable
there dont_fork which is set as per the fork=0 or fork=1 in cfg file or as
per the command line arg -D.

It is my mistake that I had forwarded the message meat for the developer
community to the user community. A user not knowing about the source code of
opensips may not have any idea of what I was trying to say. Kindly accept my
aplogy for the same.


Opensips already as forking capability, but I instead want to have threads
for the same things instead of forking a process.

I apologize once again.
