Hmm, that's a good question. My init line is as follows:
OW::init("$port --timeout_directory=1 --timeout_presence=1
--timeout_volatile=1 --timeout_stable=1");
Should I add other flags? Sorry, I don't understand how the caching
works, I thought that setting the above timeouts to 1 would effectively
stop caching...
Thx.
Chris.
