That's strange. The code to open connections.tdb is :

   if (!tdb) {
        tdb = tdb_open_log(lock_path("connections.tdb"), 0, TDB_CLEAR_IF_FIRST|USE_TDB_MMAP_FLAG,
                   O_RDWR | O_CREAT, 0644);
    }

And in tdb/tdb.c :

    if ((open_flags & O_ACCMODE) == O_RDONLY) {
        tdb.read_only = 1;

So I don't see where the connections.tdb file is being
opened readonly....

Hmmmmm. This doesn't look like the code in CVS.
