[Samba] Many 64bit locks failed on HPUX 11.00

[Esh, Andrew]

Perhaps the error message needs to have the words "NFS mounted" removed if
this condition really applies to 64 bit locks on any 32 bit file system.
Then at least it wouldn't be distracting.

Hi Rene,
The usual case is an NFS fs, but you can also get this on local filesystems
where your locking parameters exceed your filesystem capabliities..- and if
you take a look at the length reported in your error message, that's one
HUGE lock 
request...

Hi,

I'm running samba-2.2.3a on HP/UX 11.00 and get a lot of messages like:

============================================================================

This server has no NFS-filesystems mounted so I wouldn't expect to see such
a message.

Can these messages be te result of an underlying filesystem thats only 32bit
(or doesn't support largefiles) (or is this the same)?
