SUMMARY: Sun PC-NFS Pro file locking problem

From: Gregory Bond (gnb@bby.com.au)

[Summary of original problem:]

> When a disk is mounted with locking enabled, the PC talks several times to the
> lock manager, but (according to etherfind) gets a GARBAGE_ARGS error answer
> from the server nlockmgr service. This causes the PC to hang. Eventually
> (after 3 minutes?), the PC just gives up and (Silently!) continues without
> locking enabled.

Many thanks to those who responded. There is a Jumbo Patch for PC-NFS Pro
(102467-01) which we were able to download from SunSolve (once we sorted out
with the locals what our service contract number was!)
