If the issue were that another process already had control of the resource
then the UNIX error would be EAGAIN as in 'try it another time and you might
be OK', not EACCES.

Try ipcs -s to see what semaphores exist on the system and look at the
permissions on those.  Perhaps something has caused universe to create the
semaphores with a permission mask which stops you doing a semop on them?
Perhaps there is a program which is supposed to be setuid to access these
things and someone has chmod'ed it and removed the setuid bit?

Just my 2 cents. YMMV.

Cheers,

Ken
