[LDM #OPN-107414]: LDM 6.9 confusing cwd/pwd

That's definitely not the intended behavior. The current working directory in 
LDM 6.9 should be the LDM user's home directory -- just as it's always been.

I'd like to investigate. May I log onto the system in question as the LDM user? 
If not, then would you please send me the output of the command "ldmadmin 
config" and "regutil".
