[LDM #WSX-704500]: RHEL6 netstat not always showing the active LDM connection



Hi Daryl,

Assuming netstat(1) is working correctly, the only thing I can think of is that 
the downstream LDM on 192.168.0.102 went away because the connection broke and 
then reconnected later.

Does the LDM log file on ...102 show anything for that time period?
