Crud, you're right. Argh. I wrote+tested the sqlite patch on MacOSX (and it worked properly there, too). Any suggestions? Is Linux the only client platform that engages in this degree of superfakery? I'm really convinced at this point that the byte-range-lock-faking (which I assume was introduced by Transarc) was/is an incredibly bad idea and a dangerous thing. I mean really... unix/posix apps don't ask for byte range locks unless they have a good reason for doing so. - a -- PGP/GPG: 5C9F F366 C9CF 2145 E770 B1B8 EFB1 462D A146 C380 _______________________________________________ OpenAFS-info mailing list [email protected] https://lists.openafs.org/mailman/listinfo/openafs-info
