DESCRIPTION

Options and operands available for rpc.lockd:

-4

Listen for requests using IPv4. Do not listen using IPv6 unless the -6 option is also specified. By default, rpc.lockd listens for requests using both IPv4 and IPv6 if available.

-6

Listen for requests using IPv6. It is an error if IPv6 is not available.

-d debug_level

Cause debugging information to be written to syslog, recording all RPC transactions to the daemon. These messages are logged with level LOG_DEBUG and facility LOG_DAEMON. Specifying a debug_level of 1 results in the generation of one log line per protocol operation. Higher debug levels can be specified, causing display of operation arguments and internal operations of the daemon.

-g grace_period

Set the grace period (in seconds) to grace_period. During the grace period rpc.lockd only accepts requests from hosts which are reinitialising locks which existed before the server restarted. Default is 30 seconds.

Error conditions are logged to syslog, irrespective of the debug level, using log level LOG_ERR and facility LOG_DAEMON.

The rpc.lockd daemon must NOT be invoked by inetd(8) because the protocol assumes that the daemon will run from system start time. Instead, it should be configured in rc.conf(5) to run at system startup.
