I've recently upgraded from DU3.2c to 4.0D on our Alpha2100 with patchkit#3
and everything was running rather smoothly until i noticed that i wasn't
able to run the GUI Account Manager anymore from the Daily Admin window with
the following error msg:

        usr/bin/x11 dxaccounts can be run as root (privileged), with
        addtional features.
        Run as root Run as root Cancel

i was first of all running it with root priviledge.
i've verified that the dxaccounts still exist with 755 bin;bin permissions,
found that XSysAdmin in /usr/bin/X11 with 777 root;system permissions has a
link to dxaccounts.

if i run dxaccounts from the command line, i received an error msg saying;
"The password and group files are currently locked by another user, please
try again later"

I'm relatively new at this & i would really appreciate some help from
above!!! Thanks in advance
