Handling multiple simultaneous TCP connections

Sorry if this is a question that should be able to be answered from the docs
- just started using fast_cgi and I'm having a bit of "can't see the wood
for the trees" moment (I've read so much docs and mailing list questions
that I've managed to confuse myself...)

Basically what I am trying to achieve is a fast-cgi handler that listens to
a given TCP/IP socket, and as soon as a connection is made if forks a child
to handle that connection (accepting and dealing with that fcgi request
etc), whilst the parent immediately goes back to waiting for a new
connection.

This is required because the requests may take some time to process (e.g. 10
or more seconds) but needs to be able to deal with lots of requests at any
one time, without waiting for one to finish before serving the next.

Perhaps I'm just missing something obvious here, but I just can't seem to
figure out a way of doing this.

In case anyone needs to know, I'm developing in C on a Solaris platform,
using fcgiapp

Any pointers (or even example code!) would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks in advance,
Keith.
