The application/system deploys code to one or more remote hosts. The code for the application is stored in cvsnt. I do not have access to a database. Since multiple people can be deploying from different PCs at the same time, there was a chance that the same application could be deployed to the same host. The goals were to be able to see what deploys were active and to provide a mechanism that would prevent multiple concurrent deploys. I think that storing the lock files in cvsnt could work. I am looking for some feedback. The bulk of the system is written in Ant. Reading a db from Ant is possible, just not something that I have experience with. --glenn On 4/13/06, Glen Starrett <glen.starrett at march-hare.com> wrote: > glenn opdycke-hansen wrote: > > I have an application is stored on cvsnt.
