Lockfiles

1998-02-05 11:48:15
Hi,

I use local lockfiles in some places, but now I need to
know how to create them externally.

In concrete I plan to setup a perl script to automatically
create recipes to subscribe or unsubscribe or to push out
email notifications for every webpage it finds.

I'm quite sure about what the generated recipes should be,
but the locking thing bothers me. Need I use

:0: /my_absolute_path/lockfile

just in order to know where it is?!

And do you gurus have setups to watch for not-removed lock
files or how do you handle cases where lock files might
just not vanish for for longer times.

        Greetings, Kay Hayen
