I found some info via a Google search:

==================================================
   There is exclusive lock on PST file and backup
   software cannot even read this file - MSPST.INI
   should be used for setting locking mechanism :

   [ndb]
   DisconnectDelay=60
   DisconnectDisable=2
==================================================

I moved the following comments from the text above
in order to avoid line wrapping:

Notes for DisconnectDelay:
seconds till disconnect, default is 15min

Notes for DisconnectDisable:
0 = disallow disconnect to occur
2 = allow disconnect, default is 2

I have not verified the information, only passing
it along.

Regards,

Andy

The only dumb question is the one that goes unasked.
The command line is your friend.
"Good enough" is the enemy of excellence.



I have never seen it timeout on Outlook 98, Outlook 2000, or Outlook XP.
