I have a similar problem with sendmail and the lock file.  I have
a standalone system connected via LAN to my UUCP hub.  I have /users and
/usr/man mounted via NFS from the UUCP hub.  I receive the following error
from sendmail when I try to mail to a login at that machine.  
Mail from that machine works fine.

Aynbody have any answers???
