My original question:
*******************************************************
Hello Managers!

        I'm having a problem when I try to use dxaccounts or moduser. I
get
the message:

The password and group files are currently locked by another user.
Please try again later.

        I've searched for a lock file in some directories but I
couldn't find
anything. My question is what can I do to solve this and why it
happened.

                                Thanks in advance
                                        Gil Renard

Thanks to: Joe Fletcher, Oisin McGuinness and McClay, Tom C (CSC).

   The solution is to erase the file /etc/.AM_is_running.

                                        Thank's all
