After reading the post on the network shared lock manager I started
thinking! The lock manager would be in the kernel and as I understand is
essentially just managing an arbitruary set on names floating around in
netspace, so isn't this kind of like a specialization of the Inter Kernel
Communications post (IKC) of a few months ago. Modifications could make it
possible to share just about anything between kernels. Including process
IDs so that my vision of when a machine goes down -- processes stopped,
core dumped, moved across network to another machine and restarted
seamlessly complete with network traffic redirection.
