Although I tried this out on AIX 5.1, it is probably the same on AIX 4.3.3
too.
Check if there are other locale variables set in the environment. These are
the LC_ variables.
env|grep LC
The LANG variable may be over-ridden by the LC_ locale variables.
For details, check out
http://publib.boulder.ibm.com/doc_link/en_US/a_doc_lib/aixbman/admnconc/loca
le_env.htm
On my test box, with LANG set to en_US (and only LC__FASTMSG set), the dates
were two digits.
If I set LANG=C, then the dates show up as single digits (where applicable).
However, if I leave the LANG=en_US, then I can force the dates to single
digits by doing this -
LC_TIME=C
LC_CTYPE=C
export LC_TIME LC_CTYPE
Hope this helps.
Sunder.

The variable has been exported and is the same on both servers...and yes it
is exactly the same executable.
