This is probably one of two problems, one is a FAQ, the other is not...

Most likely:   SCO Distributes MMDF with a directory with the wrong
permissions.  Run the MMDF script checkup to determine which directory
has the wrong permissions and fix that directory.

Second item:   Elm 2.3 at PL0 did not work great with SCO's MMDF.  However
along the early patches SCO MMDF support got better and some of the
later pateches added MMDF support to some of the utils.  So, be sure
you are at Elm 2.3 PL11.
