Deb, verify that rpc.ldmd isn't still running in your process list, then check to see if port 388 is still in use with: rpcinfo -p If the listing shows prognum 300029 still holding on to port 388, then you will have to free the port with rpcinfo -d as root. You need the prognum (300029) and the version number (4 or 5 ) from the previous rpcinfo command- eg: rpcinfo -d 300029 4 If thats not the problem, let un know at address@hidden Steve Chiswell On Tue, 9 Feb 1999, Molenar, Deb wrote: > After typing ldmadmin start, I get the "starting the LDM server..." message, > then nothing happens for 30 minutes.
