Um, no. What Larry said. You must have set it up incorrectly. The LockDir
directory must exist, be writable by everyone, and it should have the SGID bid
set is you're not using a BSD system.
If you've already done a checkout using lockdir, setting the SGID bit on
LockDir should probably be done recursively: 'chmod -R g+s $LockDir'.
