The moving is great, because my temporary office is really
nice!  Today I saw a bald eagle fly by - very cool! 
Unfortunately I move back to my new windowless office in two
weeks.

Haven't ordered the desk, yet...

We can continue this thread between us, now that I've picked
it up.

/home/ldm/bin looks right...  Is your runtime link in
place?  Do 'ls -l' and send me the result.

Also, looks like a typo: should locacoders be
local/decoders?  (Those crazy coders!!)

Yes, that's what you must do.  You must edit the ldmadmin
script and change the string "@HOSTNAME@" to the fully
qualified hostname of your machine.  For example, on my
machine, imogene, the line says:

$hostname = "imogene.unidata.ucar.edu";

Are you following the instructions on the web page?   (See
http://www.unidata.ucar.edu/packages/ldm/ldmSourceInstallList.html.) 
This is covered under the section called "Check the ldmadmin
script."

I don't think you need to start over just yet.  I bet we can
get it going from here.

Yes, I can see why - the LDM hasn't been able to start, YET,
but it will!!
