Hi

I am looking at AFS because I have the following requirements that I believe 
are impossible with Win XP:
A single file is located on a networked computer (WinXP 1)Several people have 
access to it on their networked computers (WinXP 2, 3...n)Only one person 
should be able to edit (read to later write) the file at any single timeThe 
following is what I have understood to be true with AFS:
AFS could be set-up on Win XP1 to serve the single file
WinXP 2, 3...n can access the file by mounting the AFS, appearing like a local 
driveIf that is true, Is it possible that when the user on WinXP 2 opens the 
file to edit, that all other users (on WinXP 3...n) are denied access?
If that is true, What kind of feedback would the users on WinXP 3...n get about 
this?

all the best
Dave
