Greetings everyone.

I'm trying to achieve a scenario in where I mount 2 servers
to a single raid.  The raid drive is seen by Linux as a non-
removable SCSI device.

I mount one server as readonly and the other as readwrite.
When the server with rw updates the "shared" drive, the 
server mounted with readonly doesn't notice the changes.
Is there anyway to force the readonly to recognize the 
changes?  It Linux is using the cache instead of noticing
the change.

Thanks for any help!
 -Allan
