it freezes when it
tries to get write access for me after I click on 'read .ace file'.
at that point acedb tries to nfs-lock the database
it is possible that you unix kernel is not installed to support
locking, this is more likelly if the disk is not local to the machine
and garanteed not to work on a mixed Linux/dec-alpha system
please try to uncomment the word
// NOLOCK
by removing the //
in the file wspec/passwd.wrm
