[LDM #YTJ-348503]: ldmcheck has hard coded path to logs

Hi Ryan,

If you find that script useful, then great!  Be advised, however, that it 
hasn't been supported many, many years (a decade?).

The next release of the LDM will have a registry similar to the Windows 
registry, Gnome's GCONF, or Java's Preferences -- so it will be possible to 
modify that script to obtain the path name of the log file from the registry.
