Locked Items are Still Editable

Description

I am running this on my production site http://rpg-fusion.com where we run play-by-blog RP games. The games are run using editable nodes within books. When a player edits the game move/node, the message saying it is locked shows, but anyone else that has access to edit that content can click the edit button and it opens for them as well.

I thought Checkout module would lock the file to prevent anyone else from editing. I have tried disabling/uninstalling various modules that I thought might be conflicting. I had WYSIWYG installed but disabled that when I saw a report here that said there might be a conflict. That didn't do any good. I use the DIFF module as well.

Any ideas what might be causing the locks not to stick?

Thank you in advance.

problem gone by either upgrading FCKEditor to 2.6.5 or removing a conflicting module

Yes, same thing here. Out of the box Drupal 6.14 with checkout 6.x-2.2 and a custom contenttype made by CCK without any plugins.
"Keep document locked" is checked, but no lock message is shown, nor is the node locked.

Same here, is this project abandoned?

I have received no response on this other than you two, so I am guessing it has gone vacant in it's support. Shame. The module really served a nice niche for shared documents.
