Dan, what version of UniData are you running. I reported a similar bug
several years ago and it was fixed in version 6.1.7. With that bug, it
happened when the process was killed, and then even logging out wasn't
sufficient; any process reusing the UDTNO of the k

I second David's idea of using a READU also you can return exactly which
port/pid has the lock set, which might be helpful as well if the phantom

I'd go a set further and have the phantom actually timestamp when it set

Thanks, but the _PH_ file is cleaned up every night using the

Is there anyway to use the COMO file (_PH_)? If a Phantom ends or crashes
the last line is something like " PHANTOM process has completed."
