Brilliant question Martin. Here are a couple of articles relating to work
arounds to that problem.
http://www.crazysquirrel.com/computing/debian/bugs/openoffice-over-nfs.jspx
http://pts.szit.bme.hu/solution_to_openoffice_nfs_locking.html
And here is a guide to properly configure NFSv4
http://www.crazysquirrel.com/computing/debian/servers/setting-up-nfs4.jspx
I got almost to the end of the nfs4 setup, then felt unsure. Then I found
http://www.fedorasolved.org/post-install-solutions/nfsv4-fedora
The combination of those two pages have got me sorted (apart from a minor
glitch, where a mount is not exactly what I had in mind - but I can sort that
later, as the files are still accessible). I hope others will find these two
pages as good as I did.
Thanks for pointing me in the right direction.
Anne
