[comp.protocols.tcp-ip.ibmpc] InterDrive NFS and File Locking

KDICKEY@cmsa.gmr.com (05/13/91)

Hello,

I'm trying to use FTP Software's InterDrive NFS Client to mount
a directory on a Sun OS 4.03 server. The problem I'm having is
with the file locking. I have file locking enabled on the PC side,
but can still concurrently edit and save the same file from 2 different
PCs that have the directory mounted? The way I "thought" it should
work is that if I have the file open on one PC another PC trying to
open it would get a "file locked" error. Is this correct? Does
anyone have any experience with InterDrive and Sun?

Thanks,
