I looked at this around 8 months ago but abandoned further work on it because the approach I was taking required that nfs be refactored to use the nmount() API, and because I am not currently using NFS. It looks as though the two options implemented here helps to address the problems I was having with making sure Linux servers got the right lock cookie response. Have you tested this in production and does it work well? If so I believe it should be committed, but I'd defer to Alfred for further review. Regards, BMS
