And it appears that only BSD systems suffer from this -- which is why I'm hoping a Core Member will help fix/resolve it. That or I'll be forced to take the system down and go to Solaris :) _F At 06:19 PM 12/7/99 +0100, Kurt Jaeger wrote: >Hi! > > > We've experienced problems with db (1.85) and locking race conditions.
