ahhh, reboot. fixed.
I often do the patches late in the day and save the reboots for first
thing the next morning. Today I was in late, so I was going to wait
until tomorrow morning to reboot. But, nobody can log in. So....
Now, if I am going to do this to the rest of my servers, I will have to
plan the patch and reboot in such a way as to not disrupt service. I
suppose I'll have to hook up from home first thing in the morning,
install the patches & reboot before anyone gets to work.

Other suggestions were to
check inetd.conf and services if I was launching sshd from there. I'm
not. It's S97sshd2 in /etc/rc3.d.
check for an empty nologin file in /etc. No such file.
someone else pointed to the pam & ldap patches and said they could be
backed out if we didn't use those. That would lead to the pain of having
to deal with that every time I did another patch cluster. Luckily, the
reboot did it. Next patch cluster will see that patch already in and I
won't have to deal with it anymore (unless they do it again ;,).
