Re: Lock file error

I'm sure my two roots are a stricly local folder and a remote one. If I 
touch a file locally, it doesn't appear automatically on the server. If I 
df the local folder, I get a /dev/sda3 response meaning it's on the local 
drive. No other syncing mechanism is used beside unison.
