Lock Daemon, lockf fails

[Patrick Powell]

I have heard that there has been discussions of some problems with the
lock daemon and lockf.  I just found one here that appears to be very
serious.  Before I waste all sorts of time,  could somebody please post me
the current status of the lockf and other file locking problems?
