    Can I "force" a file to be updated only by a specifc script?

    Hi, I have a feeling the answer to this question is no. But I thought I would ask just to be sure. I have lookup file: so to speak "lookupfile.data" which contains various information. I also have a lookupfile_update.ksh script which is a Korn Shell script and allows add/change/delete...

    Does AIX cache (so to speak) Korn Shell Scripts
