Yes. There is no problem with flock and mod_perl. However, if you were to open a filehandle in startup.pl and then use that same filehandle after forking, that could be a problem. Personally I would suspect Windows in this case. I don't know about XP, but Windows 95/98/ME did not have a working flock. If XP is based on the NT code, it may not have that problem. Even so, I would try testing that first, or maybe asking about it on Win32 perl mailing list. - Perrin
