We get the following message in /var/adm/messages:
Code:
Feb 22 04:39:43 hostname See utmp(4) for more information
Feb 22 05:39:43 hostname /usr/lib/utmpd[335]: [ID 268571 daemon.warning] WARNING
: /var/adm/utmp exists!
So I followed the instructions and saw that
Code:
DESCRIPTION
The utmp and wtmp database files are obsolete and are no
longer present on the system. They have been superseded by
the extended database contained in the utmpx and wtmpx data-
base files. See utmpx(4).
It is possible for /var/adm/utmp to reappear on the system.
This would most likely occur if a third party application
that still uses utmp recreates the file if it finds it miss-
ing. This file should not be allowed to remain on the sys-
tem. The user should investigate to determine which applica-
tion is recreating this file.
/var/adm/utmp does exist.
We are running Iplanet 6.0 and Weblogic 5.1. Could these be the culprits. Anyone have experience with this error? Should I even care about this error?
Try using fwtmp on the file. That may not work since fwtmp now wants the new format. In that case try strings or od -c to see what the entries look like. That should give you a clue as to who is writing to it.
Good Morning..
