How to change Dosemu files lock scheme?

Anyone has an idea of where in Dosemu sources I can find the section
concerning files lock scheme?

I´ve got a trouble with files lock scheme in Dosemu. I have a Clipper
database served by a Slackware NFS server. When I access this database from
two different remote clients running a Clipper application under FreeDos
with Dosemu, a certain record inserted in the database by one client is
overwritten by another record inserted by the other one.
I figured out by means of a friend advice that this is a problem of the file
lock scheme, namely: the Dosemu file lock process is based upon an Heuristic
method so that one Clipper Application client running under an instance of
Dosemu does not detects that another Dosemu is already locking a file via
LAN for recording some data.

Thank you very much

Flávio
