    Hi
      This may not be strictly related to IDS, but I would like to ask a
    general question about Inter Process communication.

      The thing is I am developing an agent-based IDS system. And I needed
    additional information on efficient way to do inter-process
    communication and between un related processes.
    The thing is there is some data that needs to be shared between
    processes and I would like to know where I can find information on the
    efficient ways.. I have looked over named pipes, unix domain sockets,
    pipes, shared memory. The implementation in in Perl.

      The other thing is I cannot use Threads. I am not sure if this is
    true, but is Thread support for Perl not going to be provided in the
    newer versions??? and if anyone knows why??

      If you can give me some good links or explainations then I can
    proceed from there.

      Thanks in advance.

    Amit
