You may be using the tmpfs file system on SunOS. There's a problem
with this (locking fcntl call, I think). If you're doing tmpfs, you can
either change the source to direct caches to some non-tmpfs file system,
perhaps /usr/tmp, or maybe provide a SunOS-specific solution. Or
stop using tmpfs on the key server.
