I believe Patrick meant to put the files in /tmp, not in /tmp/dirlocks. If you need the locks to last across reboots, /var/tmp, not /var/tmp/dirlocks. Both /tmp and /var/tmp have the 1777 permissions you want and are present on any Debian system. -- Boyd Stephen Smith Jr. ,= ,-_-. =. b...@iguanasuicide.net ((_/)o o(\_)) ICQ: 514984 YM/AIM: DaTwinkDaddy `-'(. .)`-' http://iguanasuicide.net/ \_/
