Gordon, I see. This is bad. In that case, do you have any solution or idea to take care this problem?

Whenever you update the gdbm files, any server which has those files open over NFS is probably going to get a stale file handle, and report a read error. For instance, if you update "smtpaccess.dat", any server using an NFS mounted etc/courier is going to suddenly stop accepting mail, because tcpd keeps smtpaccess.dat open. It will get read errors when the copy on the NFS server is replaced, and it will drop all incoming SMTP connections, IIRC. ------------------------------------------------------- This SF.Net email sponsored by: ApacheCon 2003, 16-19 November in Las Vegas.
