Information on this seems sketchy.
I have samba 2.2 on RHEL 2.1. I have two clients (written in Java using a
1.4.2 JDK). The clients try to lock the same file with an exclusive lock.
Both clients always succeed, i.e. locking doesn't seem to work. I have
oplocks turned off on the share and locking = yes also. Can someone help
debug this?
Also, if a client managed to get an X lock on a file and the client box
failed, when is the lock released? NFS v4 uses a lease mechanism, how does
samba release such locks?
Thanks
