Re: [cobalt-users] flock() command

["Brian E. Lozier" <brian@xxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Actually, I'm a complete idiot... I just looked at the code again:

$lockresult = eval("flock(FILE,6)");

and you do have that flock in there, I missed it.  See, there's another way
I've seen that looks similar but doesn't use flock... So you were correct
and I made a mistake.

Later,
Brian

 Thanks! I just did a quick search on my .pl files for "flock" and pasted
that in.
