Um, yeah. I'm actually the one that added that FAQ answer last week :) My question is: Given the assertion that it's not safe to keep lock files on an NFS partition, what mechanism do/would/should people use to enable two applications running on seperate physical machines to use the same lock file directory? (this question is based on the understanding that unless the applications are sharing the same lock directory, and index may be corrupted by concurrent modifications, correct?) -Hoss --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
