popen()

[RouE]

I'm having trouble with popen(). In particular I am trying to do

FILE *pp;
char lineread[80];
pp = popen("rlogin lily","r+");
while (1)
    while (!feof(pp)) {
	fgets(lineread,80,pp);
	fprintf(stderr,lineread);
    }

This works fine if I run this as is, but if I do


main() {

if (fork()) exit(0);
signal(SIGHUP,SIG_IGN);
signal(SIGQUIT,SIG_IGN);
signal(SIGINT,SIG_IGN);
.
.
.

at the beginning, then I get a seg. fault when fgets tries to read from the
pipe. I've changed the command to "cat /usr/dict/words" and it works fine in
the background, so I reckon it's something to do with doing a pipe to rlogin.

Does anyone have any idea what is wrong, and what can be done about it?

thanks,

RouX
