I installed the update for Mac OS X 10.6.7 yesterday. Before the
update, BBEdit worked fine. After the update, it thinks the disk (NFS
mount point) is locked, so it thinks all the files are locked under
that directory.

None of my NFS mount or automount options have changed. The volume is
not locked. I can edit files on it with other applications (TextEdit,
vi, etc.). I've repaired disk permissions. I've uninstalled BBEdit
(including trashing the prefs) and reinstalled it. I've tried
rebooting. Nothing helps. I even tried installing TextWrangler and
it has the same problem.

I'm running version 9.6.3 of BBEdit on Mac OS X 10.6.7 on a 2 x 2.66
GHz Dual-Core Intel Xeon Mac Pro with 6 GB of memory.

I had same problem. So, apparently, have others:

My solution:
Delete NFS mounts via disk utility.
Reboot
Add the NFS mounts back in including advanced parameters which did
not survive 10.6.7 upgrade, but which I had recorded in previous
notes.
Click /Volumes/nfsshare to verify it was good
Reboot again to be sure the mounts would survive reboot (they did).

Thank you very much. That fixed it!

I had tried whacking the mount and re-adding it through NFS Mounts in
Disk Utility, but I hadn't rebooted in between. That seemed to do the
trick.

Just FYI, my advanced parameters are:

tcp,nfsvers=4.0alpha,intr,soft,rdirplus,nolocks,locallocks

Thanks again!
