Subject: ldm 5.0.8/RedHat 6.0 -- workaround

Hi,

I was searching the archives and there was a bug reported for
compilation of ldm 5.0.8, but didn't mention the distribution.

I just compiled ldm 5.0.8 on Redhat 6.0 -- hit the same bug.

It looks like a compile define is set (and shouldn't).  If
someone that loaded Kerberos support can let the group know
if the compile succeeded?

If you don't have KERBEROS support edit this:  protocol/h_clnt.c

Locate this line:

#ifdef AUTH_KERB

Add these above it:
/* LINUX ISM */
#undef AUTH_KERB

Re-try make and try it out.

PS> I don't have access to a LDM feed/site.   It compiles, unsure
    if it works.   I should be able to test it in August.

PSS> Does the NOAAport feed turn a Linux box into a toaster?
     Most likely needs the faster processor, memory and 100MBS NIC?
