Here's a little program that will well explain my problem : #include main() { int fd; if (open("test", O_RDWR, 0777) == -1) perror("THE error:"); for(;;); } And the error is: Text file busy. If I execute this program on the same node, on two different shell there is no errors. So what is the difference between excuting on the same or on two nodes? I'm doing this on Apollo sr-10.2+ with BSD4.3. Thanks for any help you can give me! -- ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- Steeve Beliveau | Allen's Axiom: When all else fails, email : u715@jsp.umontreal.ca | follow the instructions. ----------------------------------------------------------------------------
