rpc.lockd(8)						      System Manager's Manual						      rpc.lockd(8)

NAME
       rpc.lockd - start kernel lockd process

SYNOPSIS
       /usr/sbin/rpc.lockd

DESCRIPTION
       The rpc.lockd program starts the NFS lock manager (NLM) on kernels that don't start it automatically.  However, since most kernels do start
       it automatically, rpc.lockd.  is usually not required.  Even so, running it anyway is harmless.

SEE ALSO
       rpc.statd(8), rpc.nfsd(8)
