i'm actually installing amanda on a few server (redhat 6.2) "this is
probably why i'm always asking strange question" :)



usually when running ./configure i get:

checking disk device prefixes... /dev/ - /dev/
checking whether posix fcntl locking works... (cached) yes


but on one server i have the following error and compilation abort with
some error

checking disk device prefixes... /dev/ - /dev/
checking whether posix fcntl locking works... (cached) no
checking whether flock locking works... (cached) no
checking whether lockf locking works... (cached) no
checking whether lnlock locking works... (cached) no
configure: warning: *** No working file locking capability found!
configure: warning: *** Be VERY VERY careful.


this server is running like the other:
redhat-6.2
glibc-2.1.3-15
glibc-devel-2.1.3-15

i have look in my kernel configuration for an optional "posix support"
that i would have not enable!?? but i didn't find anything about it
i just have change my kernel to 2.4.2 but this didn't change anything?

I've look for similar error in amanda mailing list archives ...without
great success...
