Due to presumed bugs in an underlying library over which I have no control, I'm considering a restart in the wee hours of the morning. The basic fork/exec dance is not a problem, but how do I discover all the open file descriptors in the new child process to make sure they get closed? Do I simply start at fd 3 and call os.close() on everything up to some largish fd number? Some of these file descriptors will have been opened by stuff well below the Python level, so I don't know them a priori. Thx, Skip
