Multi-Threaded Server

I would like to know more about the machanics of the MTS system. From the time that a request is on the port and the Listener picks it up, to the time the shared server process "processes" it. What exactly are the steps that must be followed? What unix facilities are used?

For example, in the old SQL*Net V1 world, the orasrv would listen at a port address, and then fork a child process (oracle server) which would process the request and send the response back to the client. How does this all work with MTS and the SQL*Net V2 product?

Thanks in advance
Rob
