We had this problem in spades.  Make sure you run /etc/crpasswd when
you update anything via edacct.  /etc/flush_cache wouldn't hurt,
either.

Steps here were (1) /etc/crpasswd, (2) /etc/flush_cache, (3) EX, and
restart the DM.  We had an extra problem, because of the size of
our passwd file (now over 4000 entries) that Apollo tracked down
and fixed.

I was going nuts trying to get usenet and/or uucp to own the files they
were supposed to.  There was nothing special about uucp -- my files
were displayed by ls as being owned by some arbitrary joe_user.  I
finally got things straightened out, and as an extra benefit, begin to
understand exactly what it was Kirkegaard was talking about.
