If you have a 'sleep 1', you have a badly written script. You should wait for Asterisk to finish. However 4000 invocations of Asterisk can be a pain. Asterisk takes quite a while to start. I consider Asterisk's behaviour here a bug. Sadly others don't agree. > > Does anybody have an Idea how to add these lines to asterisk ?

Grab the sources of the berkely DB from the Asterisk source. It should have a utility for manipulating a databae. Nothing about locking, though, I guess. -- Tzafrir Cohen icq#16849755 jabber:[EMAIL PROTECTED] +972-50-7952406 mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] http://www.xorcom.com iax:[EMAIL PROTECTED]/tzafrir _______________________________________________ --Bandwidth and Colocation provided by Easynews.com -- asterisk-users mailing list To UNSUBSCRIBE or update options visit: http://lists.digium.com/mailman/listinfo/asterisk-users
