Hey all - I've been struggling trying to force roster updates to 
iChat via the chat server on OS X Server 10.4.7.  I've written a 
script that replaces existing rosters in all the user.xml files with 
the current list of users.  But more often than not these roster 
updates are over written when a user next opens iChat.  Does anyone 
have a solution to this problem??

`chflags uchg user.xml`

This keeps the xml files from being over written, but also stops iChat from updating the roster.

There's technically no difference. "Updating" /is/ overwriting the file.

You're overwriting the file. The user then goes in with their preconceived notions of what the file should have been like and doesn't expect someone's changed it and write what they have recorded. If you don't want one part or the other to do this, you lock the file.
