c++ socket question

When I get a new file descriptor from accept() and fork a new process directly after that does the new process get the file descriptor? Second in the parent process can I close the descriptor or will this affect the child?

  1. Yes it gets.
  2. Yes you can close the descriptor and this wouldn't affect to child (of course if you closing descriptor after fork in main process)
