Hi Jim and Jeff,

Jim, you stopped reading the installation procedure too soon:

For example if my primary feed was shemp.unidata.ucar.edu and my
failover feed was thelma.ucar.edu then I'd name my files
ldmd.shemp.unidata.ucar.edu and ldmd.thelma.ucar.edu.

Then, in the cron entry I would say:
0,20,40 * * * * bin/ldmfail -p shemp.unidata.ucar.edu -f thelma.ucar.edu

Also, if you have a question about some LDM program, be sure to try the
man page for the program as they are usually pretty good.  

(The comments in the script are lacking - it should give a better
description of what "ldmd.primary" means.)
