That was the issue, fixed that and locking works perfectly, thank you. If I may a quick side question since this stems from my repartitioning of my /usr mount points. I have /usr /usr/local and /usr/ports as separate mount points. local now does nto have nosuid, should /usr or /usr/ports have or not have that? Right now /usr does not but /usr/ports does. To my mind that seems right, but well, as already proven in this thread my mind was incorrect on that. Ken
