Heh, good thing I had that 5% hedge when making a guess based on fading memory of an email thread and the possibility that you were running an old snapshot. :-/

If no one else speaks up, the next step for tracking this down may be to ktrace the cron invocation of the daily script by changing its root crontab entry to say "ktrace -i -f /root/daily.ktrace.out /bin/sh /etc/daily" and then matching up the output there with the scripting to figure out what is triggering that warning.

When I run (as root), env SHELL=/bin/sh /usr/libexec/security,
I see the same error message.

root@ksh:[/]# env SHELL=/bin/sh /usr/libexec/security
/bin/sh: /.cshrc[8]: syntax error: `(' unexpected

So, I think you are right, the error message is triggered from /usr/libexec/security, if I run "env SHELL=/bin/ksh /usr/libexec/security", there is no error message.
but my /usr/libexec/security is up-to-date(1.31).


I noticed another problem, when I run "env SHELL=/bin/sh ktrace -i -f /tmp/k.out /usr/libexec/security".
then run kdump <  /tmp/k.out, kdump show the error message
kdump: ktrace.out: No such file or directory
I need to rename k.out to ktrace.out to make kdump work.
(ktrace filesize is 3xxMB, so I can not post here)

Thank you.
