In order for the exploit to work on most SystemV systems running on P5 x86 you have to do a sync system call first then execute the lock code. I have tested it on SCO UnixWare 1.x, 2.x, and SCO OpenServer 5.x and it will NOT work if you don't do a sync syscall first.
I tried it on two different OpenServer 5.0.4 systems, and both locked without doing a sync. -- John W. Temples, III || Providing the first public access Internet Gulfnet Kuwait || site in the Arabian Gulf region
