Hi,

in 3.0.2 this file was present in the cfengine direct folder as
cfengine_lock_db, but it seems to have moved to state/cf_lock.db in SVN
trunk.

I don't know exactly the purposes of that file; I know only that it somehow
prevents cf-execd to start if the last cf-execd instance was started less
than one minute ago. I don't need this feature and it actually bothered me,
so in my startup script I just check for the presence of this file, and if
it's there, I just delete it.

I was wondering if it was a bad thing to do, and if it could have other
implications, notably on a running cf-agent? What exactly does this lock
file contain?
