Well, this is interesting. If I set the save path to /tmp, I get a
session_mm.sem even though I have session.save_handler = files. However
if I tell it to save sessions in /var/state/horde, I don't get a
session_mm.sem. Also, I get three, count em, three session files per
login attempt, is that right??
