DEC (HP/Compaq): DIGITAL UNIX FAQ

Account Manager

Why Account Manager does not work?

faq79-4703

Posted: 12 Jan 04

If you leave Account Manager (AM) or dxaccounts improperly or without using Exit command, then the application will create a lock file /etc/.AM_is_running. Next time if you try to run the application again, it will refuse because the lock file exists.
To cure this, just delete /etc/.AM_is_running file, and AM or dxaccounts should run again.

Thanks for sbrews for providing me this answer.
