Hi there,

Could anyone pls tell me how can I use flock(2) on HP-UX 8.07 or other
System V based systems ?  It seems that HP-UX doesn't get this function
call, plus the header <sys/file.h>.

I want to port a program runs on Ultrix, which uses flock.  How can I
get it run by modifying the call to flock ?

Any help will be much appreciated.

Thanks in advance.

Rgds,
