Because it's hard. :) > although large univercities use it? As a representative of sorts of a large university, I can say that we've never really had any need for byte-range locking and have never missed it. We've missed cross-directory hard links and special files more than byte range locking, and even those I only notice every six months or so, tops. > Does the commercial version of AFS support byte range locking.? No. Transarc's version of AFS if anything has less functionality than OpenAFS. -- Russ Allbery ([EMAIL PROTECTED]) <http://www.eyrie.org/~eagle/> _______________________________________________ OpenAFS-info mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] https://lists.openafs.org/mailman/listinfo/openafs-info
