I am aware that there has been work on the nfs locking code in current, and have a vague recollection of a workaround required for the situation I am in, but cannot remember it (and cannot find it in mailing list archives). Would anyone be so kind as to refresh me on how to fix this, or at least point me in the right direction? thanks
