Does anyone have a suggestion for dealing with this?...

Cooperative file locks using the fcntl() system call do
not seem to work on NFS mounted drives in rhel4u2.  The
python script appended to this message demonstrates the
problem.
I believe that there's a similar problem reported in Red Hat's bugzilla:
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=167192 which looks as
though it's going to get fixed in U3.
indeed, it'd be helpful if you could test the U3 beta. thanks.


Red Hat supplied kernel-smp-2.6.9-30.EL.i686.rpm.  Apparently that's the
most recent rhel4u3 beta kernel.  It did not solve the problem.  (Kernel
2.6.15 from kernel.org does fix it.)

Can you please try the patch in bz #182137 comment #2. If you want i can build test kernel rpms. thanks.

We rebuilt kernel-2.6.9-30.EL.src.rpm with the patch from
comment 2 of bz 182137 incorporated into it (i686, smp).
It did not help -- the test script exhibits the same failure
behavior as before.

The 2.6.9-30 kernel source RPM was provided
to us by Red Hat as part of the work on Service
Request 807468.
