lastlog has duplicates
Hello,

we are running AIX 4.3.3, has anyone experienced an issue with the lastlog file where there are duplicate entries. ie.

# mkpasswd -c

#mkpasswd -c
/etc/security/lastlog ---> /etc/security/lastlog.idx
3004-779 Duplicate key found. "userazs"
3004-778 Index operation failed. "/etc/security/lastlog.idx"

this issue can temporarily be solved by manually deleteting the duplicates however does anyone know of a fix?

Thanks everyone
