Never mind about this. I figured out where the lock files are and just deleted
them. Is that the proper way to go about this.

One question- when I batch subscribe a long list, it is hard to tell if anything
is actually happening and with real long lists, it eventually comes back and
says something about server not found. But, when I go into Membership
Management, the addresses are there. This is running on a fast server under
Linux, yet it is difficult to tell when the subscriptions are complete and if
all of them have succeeded.
