Figured it out. :-) That's an interesting hack, pinning the gid parameter to to the gid of utadmin.pw via the utadmingid script. However, it really doesn't work well when your system's /bin/ls file was a symlink to another version of ls (yikes!). I had run a script when setting up the server that a previous admin had written. Apparently that script replaced certain solaris binaries with GNU binaries of an undetermined origin. I will be having a word or two with that admin.
Thanks for everybody's help on this one.

I just don't know how to track that down more precisely. Very strange. What does '/opt/SUNWut/lib/utadmingid' show on this machine? If it says "root" then what does '/bin/ksh -x /opt/SUNWut/lib/utadmingid' show? OttoM. __ ottomeister Disclaimer: These are my opinions.
