Error when changing expired password during login

I am running OpenSSH_4.1p1 on AIX 5.3.03. When I reset a user's
password, a flag gets set that requires that they change their password
as soon as they login. When they login, they get a message stating
that they must change their password and then login again - as
expected. The password change proceeds normally, but as soon as they
enter the new password for the second time, this message immediately
appears in the syslog: "sshd[20974]: error: getsockname failed: A file
descriptor does not refer to an open file" and the system does NOT log
them off. (20974 is the PID of the new user's shell process.) A
couple of seconds later, the same message again appears in the syslog.

I have two other machines with the same levels of AIX and SSH that do
not do this. I've searched and cannot find any difference in the SSH
configuration between the various machines. Could this be a file
permission error, or network configuration, or ...?

Thanks,
Steve
