I used lsof and that is working perfectly.

I called lsof [filename] and checked if there was any output.

usually we use a lock file :

if [ ! -f /tmp/uploading ] ; then touch /tmp/uploading ... do your stuff ... rm -f /tmp/uploading fi

Thanks!

An alternative would be to use lsof to see if the file is bein open by the ftpd process. but I never tried this. if this works, I'd like to hear about it.
