Urk, so you imprinted on the clunkiest, most pathetically limited dlm feature without even having the excuse you were forced to use it. Why don't you just have a daemon that sends your values over a socket? That should be all of a day's coding. Anyway, thanks for sticking your head up, and sorry if it sounds aggressive. But you nicely supported my claim that most who think they should be using a dlm, really shouldn't. Regards, Daniel -- Linux-cluster@xxxxxxxxxx http://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/linux-cluster
