I'm happy to say that the above patch allows Foxpro/Dosemu file locks to
be recognized by Samba 2.2.4. This means I can run the Foxpro
application via Dosemu and under MSDOS/Win98/Samba simultaneously! The
only issue I had with the above patch is that the line numbers did not
match my version of Dosemu 1.1.3.2 with keyboard patches. I had to
insert the lines manually.

Now onto stress testing to ensure the changes do not affect Dosemu
stability.

Thanks Sergey!
