No namelist when I do a `w`

What's wrong with my NeXT?  I does like this...

{sonja}/users/khw2x>w
No namelist

So, what gives? `who` still works, but not `w.`  Please help me...

Thanks!

It sounds like someone either stripped /sdmach or screwed with the permissions
such that you cannot read it.  On my Release 2.1 system:

	-r--r--r--  2 root      708219 Mar  7  1991 /sdmach
