- Well, still no luck in being able to ">>" (append) properly
- to a BSD partition NFS mounted to my Dell system. Tried all
- sorts of different mount options, tried different shells, etc.
- Append works ok on a Novell 3.11 mounted NFS partition, and another
- SYSVR4 (AT&T) system. Now, I have noticed that 386BSD is not
- running any sort of lock daemon, i.e. lockd. Not even any mention
- of it in any of the man pages having to do with NFS.
- Is this normal?
-
- (BTW, the ">>" problem is that it overwrites the file, instead of
- appending to it. Plays havoc with rkive when using the BSD system
- for archiving)
