Hi all,

We're using pine 3.87 and 3.91 on HP-UX 9.0 and 9.01.  Pine hangs when accessing
NFS-mounted mailboxes.  I think we should use the ".lock" locking mechanism  but
i'm not sure how to "enable" it.  Would anyone pls help ?  Pls send your
advice to [email-masked].  I'll post the summary.

I apologize if this's a trivial question or FAQ. :(

Thanks a lot !!

Regards,
ST Wong

We had to worry about locking files with cc:mail installation.  There was 
something your had to enable in PC-NFS to enable locking.  When 
attaching, you selected and 'advanced' option and clicked on something 
like enalble lock manager.  (I'm not at work, so I can't be more exact. :{
