I have a couple of Sparcs running SunOS 4.1 that automounts all the netnews stuff (lib, bin, spool, batch, etc) from a Sun4 that also runs SunOS 4.1. Posting from the Sun4 is fine. Posting from one of the Sparcs gives me this: What now? [send, edit, list, quit, write, append] s Posting article... fcntl: Local lock-manager not registered inews: Can't lock /home/sb/netnews/lib/active: No record locks available fcntl: Local lock-manager not registered Article not posted - exit status 256 What now? [send, edit, list, quit, write, append] q The Sun4 exports the FS's rw, and /etc/mtab on a sparc shows the FS's mounted rw. For what it's worth, nntp accessing is ok. I'm using Bnews 2.11. I also seem to recall hearing something about a bug w/ lockd/statd under SunOS 4.1. Can anyone tell me about that??? It's a decent place to start to track down this problem... Steven C.
