socket problems with cc compile options???

Hi there, a newbie as far as compiling c.
I have a problem, I've ported a fairly simple perl socket program over to c.

I compiled it as follows

cc simplesocket.c -lsocket -lnsl

compiles great, no errors.

When I launch it from the command line, it works great!!!!

However, if I launch this program from within another socket program
( a perl socket server (listener) program, basically doing an exec of this compiled program ).
The server program has no problems launching any other kinds of socket apps.

Is there some option I need to tell the compiler that will tell the program it will be running beneath another socket program????

Once again a newbie, any help appreciated.

NAME
sctp_peeloff - branch off existing association from a one-to-many SCTP socket to create a one-to-one STP socket SYNOPSIS
cc [ flag... ] file... -lsocket -lnsl -lsctp [ library... ] #include <sys/types.h> #include <sys/socket.h> #include <netinet/sctp.h> int sctp_peeloff(int sock, sctp_assoc_t id); DESCRIPTION
The sctp_peeloff() function branches off an existing association from a one-to-many style SCTP socket into a separate socket file descrip- tor. The resulting branched-off socket is a one-to-one style SCTP socket and is confined to operations allowed on a one-to-one style SCTP socket. The sock argument is a one-to-many socket. The association specified by the id argument is branched off sock. RETURN VALUES
Upon successful completion, the sctp_peeloff() function returns the file descriptor that references the branched-off socket. The function returns -1 if an error occurs. ERRORS
The sctp_peeloff() function fails under the following conditions. EOPTNOTSUPP The sock argument is not a one-to-many style SCTP socket. EINVAL The id is 0 or greater than the maximum number of associations for sock. EMFILE Failure to create a new user file descriptor or file structure. ATTRIBUTES
