Hi,

well i've traced my problem back to the fact that the
lock files in the archive directory are not being removed.

they appear as:
1999-May-subject.lock.<host-name>.<#####>

where <#####> is a number...

does anybody have the same problems?

i think this might be what causes the process-overload on our server, when
an impatient moderator doesnt wait for the stalled page to completely finnish
and approve several posts at once, all of them waiting for lock files to be
released...?

Ricardo.
