Hi David, Actually I was waiting to hear back from you: <snip> Jeff: Thanks for your quick reply. We will most likely begin with the UNIDATA feed, but I want to check with my colleagues here before confirming that. Are we able to add addition feeds later if the need develops? Lastly, you are correct that we are not an I2 participant.

In respect to the permission issue: 1) What is your OS? 2) Who is the "owner" of the ldm..is it "ldm"? 3) Did you load from source or binary? 4) Did you configure the LDM as "root"? 5) Are you logging? If so can I see the end of the log that returns permission denied 6) Is the product queue on a locally mounted disk? This should get us started on debugging...
