A trick to testing https setups on test machines

Suppose that you are building a new version of an existing machine thatruns a https web server (perhaps you are rebuilding it under a differentbase OS version). Of course you want to test it before you switch itinto production, which means that it needs a new temporary name of somesort.

The kernel has a generic system to handle local file lockingfor POSIX and flock() locks, implemented in the VFS . Roughlyspeaking, the NFS client code handles locking by first asking the NFSserver for a (remote) lock, then registering the lock locally by callingthe kernel VFS locking routines. If the attempt
