Hi,
        I'm trying to port an application (cap60) which works
more reliably with lockf (byte range locking) as well as flock.
Checking the manuals gives no entry for lockf, but there is
an include file /usr/include/sys/lockf.h but this has a
different structure and none of the same flags as on a
Sun OS 4.1...
        Anybody have any ideas of a way to add lockf to the
system or simulate its operation through another call ?

Thanks in advance

Bill Hart
