Jeremy,

Check your old messages.  I think I sent you a fix ( by our Senior
SysAdmin ) for this under 18p4.  It was fairly Solaris2 specific
and I think you mentioned that you were going to generalize it 
some. 

My memory is vague at the moment though so I could be wrong.  I
think this was the solution we chose as well.  Would ave to look at
the source though to be sure.
