Re: Help. Login problem

It simply means that when the Listener receives a connection request, it spawns a new Server Process, and tells the User Process where to find it. In other words, it "gives away" (or bequeaths) the Server Process to the User Process.

By contrast, the Listener could -if there were Server Processes already pre-spawned (and that can happen with MTS and non-MTS implementations)- merely re-direct the User Process to one of the existing Server Processes' address.

Bequeath means is starts and gives away the Server Process; re-direct means it just re-points the User to where the Server Process already exists.
