In Solaris 2.5 this is fixed.  utmp entries added with the set-uid
program "utmp_update" get marked.  Those entries can be removed
and even changed to some extent.

Entries entered by programs running as root (login thru telnetd and
rlogind, ftpd etc) can no longer be removed in 2.5.

How did you manage this?  

Cheers,

Neil
