I have no idea how to do it in master-master DB replication setup. You 
may need a way to communicate directly between the daemons (tcp or 
something) to handle remote locking, because the DB nodes aren't 
synchronous.

In master-slave replication or with single DB without replication you 
could use a db table locking or transactions or something like that. In 
this case it probably isn't much work. Well, depending on developer's 
experience ;-)

BTW Please use bottom-posting on this list, thanks.
