I've gotten fcntl() to work, but it doesn't seem that flock() works between clients. Do you know which kernel version implemented the emulation? Are we talking about the latest 2.6.14 rc, or should a 2.6.x be sufficient? Also, should this emulation be enough to make flock() work between clients? Thanks for all your help. -- Petter= ------------------------------------------------------- This SF.Net email is sponsored by: Power Architecture Resource Center: Free content, downloads, discussions, and more. http://solutions.newsforge.com/ibmarch.tmpl _______________________________________________ NFS maillist - NFS@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/nfs
