Re: Uptime not displaying how long the system has up

Check that utmpx is ok and can be read:

spiff:~ (212)>truss -t open,read uptime
open("/var/ld/ld.config", O_RDONLY) Err#2 ENOENT
open("/lib/libc.so.1", O_RDONLY) = 3
open("/proc/self/auxv", O_RDONLY) = 3
read(3, "D807\0\0E37F04\bDE07\0\0".., 168) = 168
open("/var/ld/ld.config", O_RDONLY) Err#2 ENOENT
open("/lib/libc.so.1", O_RDONLY) = 3
open("/var/adm/utmpx", O_RDWR|O_CREAT, 0644) = 3
open("/var/adm/utmpx", O_RDWR) = 4
read(4, "\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0".., 8192) = 3720
read(4, 0x080722EC, 8192) = 0
open("/usr/share/lib/zoneinfo/Europe/Stockholm", O_RDONLY) = 3
read(3, " T Z i f\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0".., 675) = 675
8:50pm up 4 day(s), 21:29, 1 user, load average: 0.20, 0.39, 0.35

This is from a Solaris nevada system, but I don't think this has been
changed significantly since solaris 8.
