As suspected, upgrading the client to 7.1.2.1 has resolved the problem with
administrator login. So, I am pretty sure it is related to IT08705
<http://www.ibm.com/support/docview.wss?uid=swg1IT08705> but I can not
confirm since I can't find the APAR record. So it seems this problem
effects Windows as well as AIX clients.
