Corona,

Thanks for the tip. I got it working finally, the Perl code was so old that it was not using the proper semantics to invoke fcntl type locking. Once that was fixed, and really suprising just one initializatin script that all of scripts called, everything works.

I am still puzzled about why when the Ubuntu machine was serving the files it worked and when I switch the having CentOS server the files it stopped working.

Maybe something to do with the CentOS machine using NFSv4 even though the Solaris machine was mounting the filesystem as version 3?
