SYMPTOMS
========
A file lock may not appear to be free on a Macintosh computer attached to a MAC
Volume when the following occurs:
1. A personal computer-based application locks a record in the file on a
Macintosh Volume.
2. The Macintosh attempts to lock the same record and gets a return code
indicating that the record is already locked.
3. The personal computer-based application releases its lock on the record.
4. The record still appears to be locked when viewed from the Macintosh even
though it is not locked.
CAUSE
=====
The cached information for the lock in Services for Macintosh is not cleared out
when the personal computer lock is removed.
