It's not the point of this distribution list to discuss Perl, but fork will
return the process id for both processes. A simple pattern for the source
code looks like:

pid = fork();
if (pid==0){print "do the child things";}
else {print "do parent things"}

You want to aim your script semantics according to the pid. This is because
the source code is executed by both processes.
