Yes. As per the instructions in the 'Preinstallation Steps' link in:
http://my.unidata.ucar.edu/content/software/ldm/ldm-6.0.13/index.html
# Edit file /etc/syslog.conf
The LDM uses the system logging daemon, syslogd, to write error messages using
the local0 logging facility.
* Add the following entry to file /etc/syslog.conf
local0.debug /usr/local/ldm/logs/ldmd.log
Note that you might have to adjust the pathname of the log-file.
* Add the string local0.none to entries like the following so that LDM
messages will not be written to the console (Note: entries might not
be exactly like these, but they should be similar):
*.err;kern.notice;auth.notice;user.none;local0.none /dev/console
*.err;kern.debug;daemon.notice;mail.crit;user.none;local0.none
/var/adm/messages
So, at a minimum, I would adjust your:
*.info;mail.none;news.none;authpriv.none;cron.none /var/log/messages
entry to:
*.info;mail.none;news.none;authpriv.none;cron.none;local0.none
/var/log/messages

I am afraid that we are out of spare feed types for the moment, so you
will have to use the EXP feed or one of the other existing feed types
that you are currently not using as long as you plan to keep _not_
using it for anything else.

No worries.
