Thanks to everyone who replied - as several folks pointed out, I
needed to halt the server and upgrade to 3.1.1.5. Messy, but the
upgrade went smoothly, I ran an AUDIT RECLAIM, and it looks like
I'm back in business.
If there's anyone else out there who hasn't upgraded their AIX 3.1.1.2
server to 3.1.1.5, I *strongly* recommend that you do so ASAP.
