Summary: AUFS says the files/folders are locked Keywords: AUFS files folders locked Message-ID: <1990Aug17.000925.19805@hoss.unl.edu> Date: 17 Aug 90 00:09:25 GMT Sender: news@hoss.unl.edu (Network News Administer) Organization: University of Nebraska, Computing Resource Center Lines: 12 My problem is solved. It turns out that the lock daemon was not running. Whenever anyone tried to perform an operation on a file, AUFS must lock it, do he operation, and unlock the file. Since the lock request was failing, the files were being interpreted as locked. Something bombed in rc.local at startup and several other important daemons were also missing. Thanks to casper@fwi.uva.nl for the suggestions. Russell Mosemann mosemann@hoss.unl.edu uunet!hoss.unl.edu!mosemann
