The 2.1.x kernel does have support for NFS locking but is still under development. To use that, in addition to 2.1.x, you need some utilities. These are packaged as `knfs' and are available in project/experimental. On Tue, Jun 30, 1998 at 12:08:36PM -0400, Jean Pierre LeJacq wrote: Is network locking supported in hamm?

NFS/Network locking available?
Hi, I am exporting some ext2 filesystems from my Debian box to a Solaris machine. While the export works, the Solaris automounter complains about network locking not being available on my Debian box. Is network locking supported in hamm? If so, how do I enable it? Thanks, -Ossama __ Ossama Othman [EMAIL PROTECTED] -- Unsubscribe? mail -s unsubscribe [EMAIL PROTECTED] /dev/null

It works find for serving read-only filesystems but is worthless for read-write.
