UNIX for Dummies Questions & Answers

Hi ,
I m beginner for Unix and i want to use FIFO in my 2 Scripts . I want 1 script to read data from FIFO and other will write into FIFO.

Despite reading so many articles/posts i am still unable sunchronize my scripts.


My doubts are

1> Do We require both scripts as daemons to use FIFO ?
2> Below is my code ,pls modify it to make it work .


$ cat write
echo "name:" "Akshay" > /home/nbkpxj6/db.FIFO


$cat read
eventQueue=/home/user/db.FIFO

while : ; do


cat $eventQueue | while read name; do
echo $name
done

done

I m getting error " 0403-006 Execute permission denied."

I know above code can work for 2 separate terminals , but i want single terminal to run both scripts, write value and read value from FIFO.


Thanks in advance
