I find it a bit scary that a Solaris NFS locking problem is reported, Sun are the guys that paved the way for NFS locking, after all, so I'd tend to believe it's a site issue not a general Solaris issue.

Is anyone else seeing fcntl locking problems on Solaris 8 for F_SETLKW ("block until lock obtained")?

I cannot reproduce this problem here. Using the supplied test program, the output is as expected:

Locked with F_SETLKW
Sleeping - try to lock same file from second process
File closed

This is with Solaris 8 on both ends.
