Why wrong list?
Inside dba i use flock compatibility routines. If you can show us how to do thatThe real question is why you need mandatory locks and not advisory locks. If everyone is playing on the same team, advisory locks should provide all the semantics you need (and are very portable). Mandatory locks (on linux at least) require not only special mount options, but special perms to the file (g-x, g+s, I believe). That seems like a lot to require inside an extension.
on Netware or if you can use those mechanisms then both (streams and netware
port) would benefit.
