You may have to flatten your utmp, wtmp, utmpx and wtmpx files. ONLY IF YOU DON'T MIND LOSING ALL THEIR CONTENTS. i.e:
[tt]cd /var/adm
>utmp >utmpx >wtmp >wtmpx[/tt]
There was a script on SunSolve for keeping a certain number of records in these files, but it was out of date and corrupted our files anyway when I tried it. Annihilannic.
