lslk outputs inode numbers for file locks.

Is there a faster way than this find command to find out the filename
associated with the inode numbers?
In the following session, lslk returns immediately, but find takes 20
seconds or so before in prints that filename, and then continues to
run for an unknown time longer scanning the rest of the disk(s). (I
hit delete after another 30 seconds)

# lslk |grep 177094
rclerk 3972 1,43 177094 1280448 w 0 1022596 0 0 1022599

'find' would have returned sooner if you had an inkling to search just one
filesystem (/u) instead of all of them (/).

BTW: '-print' has been totally unecessary for the find command for
many years -- it's the default action.

Isn't this what ncheck is for?

Just think of all those times I must have typed, typo'd and corrected that
darn old "-print". I can remember, maybe from Xenix days, when I forgot it
and got no results.

well, true, and lslk's output did provide that much info, but /u is
often a lot larger than ("/" - "/u")

just proves I learned on xenix like a real man unlike all these linux
weenies

SCO 3.2v4.2 -print is required.
SCO 3.2v5.0.4 -print is NOT required.

However saying -print is totally unnecessary is saying my fingers automatically
know what flavor or version they are typing on. They have enough trouble
with "/" and "\".
-print may be unnecessary to later versions of SCO and to Linux, but new
rules for my old dogs (make that fingers) is asking a lot.

I'm sure JPR knows this, but let me also point out that saying
print is not necessary doesn't really tell the whole story. It
is not needed for the simple cases here, but it becomes very necessary
in more complex usage.
