I was wondering why the specifications for the ldm say to chown rpc.ldmd to
root. If the ldm is registered with the portmaper (/etc/rpc), then the
portmaper specifies which port ldm will be using. Also, if ldm uses rpc,
why are we specifying the 388 port in the /etc/services file?
I am asking because, when I run rpc.ldmd as the ldm user, my pqact and
pqbinstats programs start-up and run great. Where as, if rpc.ldmd is
chowned to root, they never start and no errors are produced.
Thanks,
