Don't use that. Use MLDBM::Sync, or just use a file if that seems like overkill.

    Using MLDBM::Sync worked perfectly, thanks. Up until the point I realised im gonna have to share an array :)
    So back to the shared memory question, whats going wrong there?

      MLDBM::Sync can share arrays. What's the problem?

        Oh right. Can you give me a hint how it does that, I can only see how to do hashes at the moment. Simply replacing the hash with array gives: 
        TIEARRAY not handled by object MLDBM::Sync at /usr/lib/perl5/site_perl
