/var/adm/acct/nite/fd2log contains one line:
 
/usr/lib/acct/runacct: /var/adm/acct/nite/statefile: cannot create

I don't know when this line was written.  I was playing around with
this yesterday and deleted this file.  It that time there were many
messages about the "/etc/acct/holidays" needing updating.  I have not
looked at the "holidays" file.  At this point I mostly need to get
processing going so that /var does not fill up (currently it's showing
97%).
 
Is the "cannot create" error a permissions problem?
 
Thanks for the ideas,
Glen Gunselman

Definitely helps to see this.  You are redirecting error messages to
the 
file /var/adm/acct/nite/fd2log.  Look for clues in that file, it should

tell you what errors are occuring when runacct is run.

Good luck,
