records not locking?

[scooter6 at gmail.com]

We've had this filepro sytem for years -- CentOS 5.10 and filePro 5.6.10R4

We have an app written years ago that is basically a front end lookup to a
main customer file
It used to be if someone has a record pulled up from this main file, and
someone else attempted to access it, you would see at the bottom something
stating watiing for record to be unlocked or something like that, don't
remember the exact verbiage

Some of you might remember I recently had to replace the CentOS RAID and
left the filePro RAID in tact when we had a root kit virus.....so I simply
swapped the 2 OS drives and configured what I needed to user wise,
etc.....by taking the /etc/passwd files, etc from the old OS and on to the
new OS drives....
Everything has worked out with no problems.....I only mention this because
this is the only thing that's changed on this system...

Yesterday, one of my operations people informed me that two people could
have the same record pulled up at one time and update it 'at will'??
Now the program used to access the main customer file is just a filePro
file that does a lot of lookups to display the data from the main customer
file - and I checked input processing and made sure all the lookups are
'protected'

Any idea what would cause them no longer seeing the 'waiting for record to
be unlocked' message as before?  Very strange.....this has never been the
case in the 15 yrs we've had this program built, etc....

Thanks for any insight....pretty confused on this
