Solaris proc listing reporting multiple process that don't appear to exist.

I have 11 Sun V210 machines that have same version of hobbit client
installed (hobbit-4.2-beta-20060605) and 10 of them report correctly on
my procs tests. However, one does not - it reports the multple copies of
some processes when there is one of each and no copies of others when
the processes are clearly visable in the process listing.  I believe the
client is reporting correctly but the server is having some trouble
working it out. 

Config in hobbit-clients.cfg on the server is below and works for
lo-dev01, lo-dev02... lo-dev10.

HOST=%lo-dev.*
        PROC inetd 1 1 yellow
        PROC cron 1 -1 yellow
        PROC syslogd 1 1 yellow
        PROC dtlogin 1 1 yellow
        PROC ypbind 1 1 yellow
        PROC rpcbind 1 1 yellow

How can I debug this???

Procs page:

 inetd (found 0, req. between 1 and 1)
 cron (found 7, req. 1 or more)
 syslogd (found 0, req. between 1 and 1)
 dtlogin (found 12, req. between 1 and 1)
 ypbind (found 0, req. between 1 and 1)
 rpcbind (found 12, req. between 1 and 1)
