I know this question has been asked a billion times but ... is there any way to force the equivalent of an fsync on UNIX V.3 (in particular ISC UNIX 2.2). If yes, do I have to *open* the file in this mode (I'm thinking of the imple- mentation of dir) or can I simply grab the fd and have my way? Right now, I'm writing to a raw file partition, but this is definitly a kludge.
