I understand. I will copy a file of example UNIWISC PIPE actions to the ~ldm/etc directory on virga for reference. > By the way, I think that the problem I had a year ago with the LDM > hanging for no apparent reason (rpc processes still running but data > abruptly stops flowing) seems still to be present.

We are _very_ disappointed with Apple for not addressing this issue. We have tried the LDM on an internal MacOS-X machine here at the UPC each time Apple came out with an updata for MacOS-X, but none of the mods fixed the problem. > Maybe Snow Leopard (Apple's next version of Mac OS X) will save the > day .... A grand hope, but I am kinda doubtful that it will (sigh).
