Symptoms:
	PHCO_13719:
	The /sbin/init.d/comsec script does not correctly
	start ttsyncd when both /usr/sbin/rpc.nisd and
	/usr/sbin/rpc.nisd_resolv are running.  If
	both daemons are running the ttsyncd daemon will
	not be launched and the NIS+ trusted tables will
	either not be initially created or not be kept
	in sync with the passwd table.

Defect Description:
	PHCO_13719:
	The /sbin/init.d/comsec script contains a function
	called findproc() to determine if the rpc.nisd
	daemon is running.  This function does not
	gracefully handle the case where multiple daemons
	match the search criteria.

	For example, on this system both rpc.nisd and
	rpc.nisd_resolv are running:

	# ps -e | grep rpc.nisd
	   788 ?         0:00 rpc.nisd_resolv
	   779 ?         0:00 rpc.nisd

	When comsec script is used to start the ttsyncd
	here is what happens:

	# /sbin/init.d/comsec start
	    starting the Trusted Table Sync Daemon (ttsyncd)
	/sbin/init.d/comsec.orig[95]: 788^J779: Syntax error
	        rpc.nisd not running
