Subject: NFS4 Lock Lease

I have not looked at how NFS4 handles its lock lease yet. Could
someone pass few pointers ? The specific question I have is the
perpetuity issue - that is, how does (or will) NFS4 lock lease prevent
a lock owner from taking the lock for an extended duration (or even
indefinitely) ?

Thanks,
Wendy

I believe I asked a very dumb question .. "lease" is associated with a
time period - so perpetuity is not an issue at all. I have no idea why
I got confused few minutes ago :)
