One of our user groups might be using PC-NFS rather than Novell for
distributing an application over a wide area.

I would like to specify ISC 386/ix as the operating system for their
server, (as at least one other box will be running this close by),
but I have heard that NFS file locking is disabled on the current
release.

Would anyone out there know whether this is true, and if so, 
when it might be fixed?

Do other 386 Unixes have this problem?

Thanks for any help that might be received;
