I have LDM 6.8.0 on. Running the ldmadmin newlog command manually yields no
problems.
Couldn't invoke the ntpdate(1) utility, "ntpdate": No such file
or directory. Set the value of the variable "$ntpdate" in the
configuration-file, /home/ldm/etc/ldmadmin-pl.conf, to the pathname of
the ntpdate(1) utility.
You should either fix the problem (recommended) or disable time-checking
by setting the variable "$check_time" to 0 in the configuration-file,
/home/ldm/etc/ldmadmin-pl.conf, (not recommended).
Turns out that the answer is that RHEL and CentOS don't have paths for
/usr/sbin in their default .login or .bashrc files. Putting them in there,
or putting an absolute path into the ladmadmin-pl.conf entry easily fixes
the issue.
Otherwise, LDM 6.8.0 is working great.
