This is very valuable information, thanks for letting me know.

The LDM is installed as part of AWIPS II EDEX, the RPM package name is 
"awips2-ldm".  No, you don't need to install the LDM from source separately.

This may be due to your IP address not resolving to an allowed name.  We have 
allows for .edu and .gov addresses, so you should be able to request from 
idd.unidata.ucar.edu if you're in a WFO, but to be sure, let me know what your 
EDEX server IP address is and I'll see if it resolves to an allow with our IDD 
cluster.

Though this could be a local firewall issue, since LDM needs ports 388 open to 
request/receive data.
