MAJOR issue with userdel, useradd, etc.

Ok, we run userdel, and get this from time to time:
[root at borg etc]# /usr/sbin/userdel jattest
userdel: unable to lock group file
We also get this for useradd, etc.
Nothing but a reboot in the past has cleared this up. There are no lock
files that we can find. This is on a NIS master running AS3.0, straight
from the box. No patches.
This is a major problem for us.
