This works fine. Trouble is, the PC software wants to lock active files over the net. I can't find any reference anywhere for a "lockd" daemon for the BSD NFS implementation. Neither is there an entry for it in the inetd.conf file. Can you clue me in on this? Does BSD unix not do this at all? > I believe nobody has ported a lockd .
