Your problem is probably related to interaction between the registry
daemons and "tcpd".

See your "ncs" manual (a thin thing you porobably won't even remember
seeing) and lookup the part on selecting TCP versus the internal
Apollo carrier protocol.  If "tcpd" is up when the glbd & llbd start,
they use tcp as a carrier.  THIS DOESN'T WORK VERY WELL.  

The text below should offer some suggestions.  Run the same "grep" on
your system and compare the output.  I have several extra lines.
Check the manual, Complain like hell on the hotline, and make sure you
understand the changes before going at it.
