- Is there any way of finding out what files are open
- and what programs are accessing those files. I have
- an optical disk and sometimes it won't eject because there are
- files open (the disk is busy). When I worked with vms systems
- this facility was part of the operating system. What is keeping
- track of file access and how do I find out? Thank you very much.
