Hi,

Quoting Nikola Milutinovic <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>:

Now, one question that is a bit off topic, why is NFSv4 locking so bad? Couldn't they (Powers that Be) fix it, so it behaves like a normal (albeit, networked) file system?


As far as i know NFSv4 has the locking support, but nobody has tested it with cyrus till know. All shared filesystems have to deal with the problem that they need to cache informations to be fast and to get all changes to keep consistent.
