Pat,

I sure you followed the preInstall and the Binary or Source install
instructions on the LDM home page.

Since you stopped the ldm with a control c, make sure all the ldm
processes are gone first, kill them, ie

% ps ajx | grep ldm

% ldmadmin clean

Did you make the ldm queue first, ie 

% ldmadmin mkqueue

What's the ldmd.log messages say, there at  ~ldm/logs/ldmd.log

If there are no log messages, try starting the ldm from the ldm home dir
by:

% bin/rpc.ldmd -vl - etc/ldmd.conf

The log messages will come to the screen.  Also there is some other debug
info at the beginning of the etc/ldmd.log file.
