NFS and file locking

[Philip M. Golllucci]

Hi,

That works!

I haven't tried it yet...., but is it better to use the -L
or run these 3 services ?  Also, if anyone knows how to add this in 
fstab that would be nice too... Not that I reboot that often :)


Thanks!


-L
Do not forward fcntl(2) locks over the wire.  All locks will be
local and not seen by the server and likewise not seen by other
NFS clients.  This removes the need to run the rpcbind(8) service
and the rpc.statd(8) and rpc.lockd(8) servers on the client.
Note that this option will only be honored when performing the
initial mount, it will be silently ignored if used while updating
the mount options.
