20051104: Problem with TCP service 300029 and RPC on iceberg?

Hi Matthew and Jesse,

Sounds like you did not run 'make install_setuids' as 'root' as
the final step of your LDM installation:

<as 'ldm'>
cd ~ldm
tar xvzf ldm-6.4.2.tar.Z
cd ldm-6.4.2/src
./configure
make
make install
sudo make install_setuids

If you do the last step, rpc.ldmd will be able to use port 388.
Without it, the portmapper will be needed.  We strongly suggest running
'make install_setuids' as we are not big fans of portmap.  Rest assured
that the amount of time that the LDM (rpc.ldmd) spends as 'root' is
extemely short: just long enough to get port 388.  After that, it runs
as 'ldm'.

Did you run 'make install_setuids' as 'root'?

Not a big problem.

Tom,

But I did run the make install setuids! (Been down this road before...)

After our admins got the portmapper running and I restarted, things  
appear to be fine...hmmmm.  I'll reverify that I did run the setiuds  
- but I'm really sure I did...

Thank you Tom!!

Matthew
