From KB's comment, I'll take it that to update an index, filePro locks
a segment of the index, updates bytes as needed, and closes the lock.
Somehow I had in the back of my head that some sort of shared memory
structure was involved with indexes.
So properly tuned, nfs mounted filePro should work.
Okay. I've learned something here. At least I'm not as afraid of nfs as
I was before.
