Re: LDM crashing on Redhat 5.3, fully patched

Robert,

I always planned on sharing the finding with the ldm-users list, I had no
intentions of not doing so.  I just want to take the intermediate set of
messages away from the group.  Sometimes the number of intermediate can
range over 10 messages. If you would like to be included in all the
messages? I can do that.

Robb...
