sharing VM between MacOSX users? (not simultaneously!)

OK so I have the .pvs and .hdd files in /Users/Shared/xp_vm directory which has permissions so both users I want to be able to use it (not simultaneously!) can read and write.
When the second user (not the VM creator) run Parallels (beta 6) with parallels not running I get the message:
Unable to lock out the configuration file <path>/winxp.pvs
Pressing OK it works perfectly...what is this? Is there a hidden lock file? why is it not deleted when the first user quits parallels?
Any help appreciated.
 
Sorted - pls ignore!

actually please ignore this - my permissions were incorrect on the VM directory. Works fine now :p
