Imagine an NFS application that has to lock a file to inform others that the file is already used and should not be written (F_WRLCK). In samba server, there is no check/no error reported to the SMB clients that the file is locked. So a samba client can always access/write the file that is already used and locked by an NFS client. >> Does this work across different NFS clients? And if yes, which syscall are used there? The application has to be written to handle locks correctly. fcntl function ?
