Hmm, yes, there is some of that.  I guess I was thrown off by the fact
that the lock appeared to be on the .tdb file and the .tdb file
wouldn't be accessed by any NFS client.

Could another process be holding the lock on the .tdb file while it
waits for access to the underlying file within the requested share?
