RE: FTP - Check if file is in use

[GKern@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx]

Scott Klement has a tutorial showing how to check for existence and 
permission to IFS files. Not sure if that will help you determine how to 
actually get a lock.

Or from the archives, another response from Scott:

open() API with the O_SHARE_NONE flag will give you an "exclusive" lock on
the file itself (as opposed to a lock on a range of bytes within the file)
