Hi Jan,

OK.I did as what you say.First open file "hakan" ,than open same file on second client.But there is no kernel error or in-use error??is this a bug?or Am I do something wrong??

I guess I didn't understand your question.

Coda has no file locking, we're optimistically assuming that write
sharing is not very common.

An evaluation of this statement can be found in J.J. Kistlers thesis [1]
at page 221. Here he examines the write-sharing patterns over a 12 month
period on an AFS server cluster at CMU with about 300 users.

You can find links to a postscript and an acrobat copy of his thesis
