Boost.Thread and fork

Hi,

I have problem with boost.threads on linux ( under gcc ).
I have a multithreaded aplication using Boost.Thread. It works just fine.

However, I want to make a daemon out of it. So I tried to fork() at the start
of the program and run all the relevant code ( including all threading ) in the
child process. But when I do so, first call to create_thread hangs the process.

I'm quite new to linux threading, so it is possible, that the problem is not
related to Boost.Threads. 

Any hints?

Thanks in advance.
