If multiple servers need to access the same physical repository, a privately-arranged scheme can be used to keep them from colliding with each other (possibly even some server acting as a clearinghouse for doling out LOCK tokens). -- bill@carpenter.ORG (WJCarpenter) PGP bill@bubblegum.net 0x91865119 38 95 1B 69 C9 C6 3D 25 73 46 32 04 69 D6 ED F3
