Is the file locked ?

[MoshiachNow]

Hi,

I'd like to establish if the file is currently locked for read nad by which process.

Which command would I use ?

Thanks

fuser 'filename'
will return the process with open inodes to file.

And Unix doesn't lock files. You can always read and write or even remove it.

Cheers
