I've rewritten the source code excluding fopen() and handling
concurrency but I still get the same problem.

Here's the new one:

#include <stdio.h>
#include <stdlib.h>
#include <string.h>

#define MAX_INPUT 8192

int main(int argc, char **argv)
{
    char request [MAX_INPUT];

    while (fgets(request, MAX_INPUT , stdin) != NULL)
    {
        const char *channel_id = strtok(request, " ");
        char *detail = strtok(NULL, "\n");

        if (detail == NULL)
        {
// Only 1 paramater supplied. We are expecting at least 2 (including
the channel ID)
            fprintf(stderr, "FATAL: %s is concurrent and requires the
concurrency option to be specified.\n", program_name);
            exit(1);
        }

        if (strcmp(detail,"172.30.30.1")==0) printf ("%s OK\n",channel_id);
        else printf ("%s ERR\n",channel_id);
    }
    return 0;
}
