Important files such as .lock files and .pid files should be written under /var/run/. If they are user-dependent (multiple users create multiple .lock and/or .pid files) then they should be placed under the home directory, preferably with also the system name in the file name (in case of NFS-mounten home dirs). I think I will contact the bonobo maintainer for his opinion. Thanks, Paul Slootman -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble? Contact [EMAIL PROTECTED]
