[IDD #RZG-559297]: LDM: host name changed

Hi Steve,

Thanks for the quick action wrt sudo out of the 'ldm' account.

I modified /etc/syslog.conf as 'root' to include the needed changes
for LDM logging.  I verified that the new changes work as follows:

<as 'ldm'>
hupsyslog
logger -p local0.debug 'test of ldm logging'

The test message was written into the ~ldm/logs/ldmd.log file as it
should be, so logging now works.

Also, using 'sudo' I was able to edit the /etc/hosts file and correct
the problems I found there:  the whitespace between IP addresses and
fully qualified host names AND aliases MUST be tabs, not spaces.  I
changed all occurrences of spaces to tabs to clean up.  After making
these changes and then stopping and restarting the LDM, data started flowing:

<as 'ldm'>
ldmadmin watch
