Re: [cobalt-developers] Password File Lock



check "/etc/locks" for any files.  It should be ok to remove anything in
this directory, but check their last access and/or creation dates to be
sure.  The cobalt ui/backend should properly clean up after itself, but if
it is interrupted or crashes then it may have left some lock files around.

If this problem persists then could you detail what the knowledge base
steps were?
