53  * Simple file locking.
54  * Create a symlink to a file.  The "test and set" will be
55  * atomic as creating the symlink provides both functions.
56  *
57  * The timeout value specifies how long to wait for stale locks
58  * to disappear.  If the lock is more than 'timeout' seconds old
59  * then it is ok to blow it away.  This part has a small window
60  * of vunerability as the operations of testing the time,
61  * removing the lock and creating a new one are not atomic.
62  * It would be possible for two processes to both decide to blow
63  * away the lock and then have process A remove the lock and establish
64  * its own, and then then have process B remove the lock which accidentily
65  * removes A's lock rather than the stale one.
66  *
67  * A further complication is with the NFS.  If the file in question is
68  * being served by an NFS server, then its time is set by that server.
69  * We can not use the time on the client machine to check for a stale
70  * lock.  Therefore, a temp file on the server is created to get
71  * the servers current time.
72  *
73  * Returns an error message.  NULL return means the lock was obtained.
