Mike,

It is always the simple problems that are easy to get tripped up on :-(

No problem.

She should stop and restart syslogd.  A HUP won't do what is needed since
it is most likely wedged.  Again, you should:

o stop the LDM
o stop and restart syslogd
o restart the LDM

Before the LDM restart, just to make sure, verify that ~ldm/logs/ldmd.log
is writable by the user that runs the LDM.

>thanks again,

You are welcome.
