Hello,

In /etc/rc.conf the comment after [en,dis]abling lockd says it's 
broken.  I had been trying to use it before I noticed the comment
and in fact, it really is broken.  I cannot exclusively lock a
file on an NFS mounted partition from my FreeBSD machines.  Is
this problem fixed in 2.2.8 or 3.0?  Is there an alternative to
using the default lockd?  Could I compile/install another one that
isn't broken?

Thank you,

Victor
