  <para>
   <variablelist>
    <varlistentry>
     <term><parameter>path</parameter></term>
     <listitem>
      <para>
       Commonly a regular path in your filesystem.
      </para>
     </listitem>
    </varlistentry>
    <varlistentry>
     <term><parameter>mode</parameter></term>
     <listitem>
      <para>
       It is <literal>r</literal> for read access, <literal>w</literal> for
       read/write access to an already existing database, <literal>c</literal>
       for read/write access and database creation if it doesn't currently exist,
       and <literal>n</literal> for create, truncate and read/write access.
       The database is created in BTree mode, other modes (like Hash or Queue)
       are not supported.
      </para>
      <para>
       Additionally you can set the database lock method with the next char. 
       Use <literal>l</literal> to lock the database with a <filename>.lck</filename>
       file or <literal>d</literal> to lock the databasefile itself. It is 
       important that all of your applications do this consistently.
      </para>
      <para>
       If you want to test the access and do not want to wait for the lock 
       you can add <literal>t</literal> as third character. When you are 
       absolutely sure that you do not require database locking you can do 
       so by using <literal>-</literal> instead of <literal>l</literal> or
       <literal>d</literal>. When none of <literal>d</literal>, 
       <literal>l</literal> or <literal>-</literal> is used, dba will lock
       on the database file as it would with <literal>d</literal>.
      </para>
      <note>
       <para>
        There can only be one writer for one database file. When you use dba on 
        a web server and more than one request requires write operations they can
        only be done one after another. Also read during write is not allowed.
        The dba extension uses locks to prevent this. See the following table:
        <table>
