Re: passwd command exists with db_lock.share permission denied
try to rename the folloing files and try your command again:
_db_lock.share
_db_mpool.share
_db_txn.share
or move them in anther usless directory.
all the best

Re: passwd command exists with db_lock.share permission denied
Since this is a production machine, I can't move these files around without know what the impact would be.. any help in this matter is greatly appreciated.
Thanks!

Re: passwd command exists with db_lock.share permission denied
/sbin/init.d/prpasswd stop
The prpasswdd is basically a performance enhancement, you don't need it on the system. If the problem is that the prpasswdd has this file locked, stopping the prpasswdd may help.
If you then want to restart the prpasswdd you can use the command:
/sbin/init.d/prpasswd start

Re: passwd command exists with db_lock.share permission denied
Any other helpful hints? I'm pulling my hair out here.. Luckily there are only like 3 primary users of this machine, and root can change the users passwords no problem.

Re: passwd command exists with db_lock.share permission denied
tsh appears in Protected Password database but cannot be retrieved
with getespwent()
tsh not listed in /etc/passwd, but is in the Protected Password database.

Re: passwd command exists with db_lock.share permission denied
Is the /sbin/ksh shell there?
Do you get any ouput when you run:
edauth -g root
It seems that the system cannot identify the root user.
passwd: /var/tcb/files/__db_lock.share: Permission denied
Change password: root: unknown user.
