Re: How can I lock a record using php-ldap?

Yes but don't we have to retrieve 42 first before we can make changes to 
it?  The race condition occurs in the script because we have more than 
one step involved in the retrieve and modify cycle in the script.  Is 
there an atomic function of which I am unaware that will allow one to 
retrieve an attribute and alter it's value in the database 
simultaneously?  If not then we are stuck.
