Tom,

The root crontab should not be running the dostats command.
This should be in the ldm crontab.

The message from Super-User is complaining because it cant find 
the bin/ldmadmin script under its home directory, because its under the
ldm directory. Since we are seeing the stats arrive here, it would seem
like you might be running the script from both LDM and Root's crontab.

If this is the cause, you only need to remove the crontab entry from root's
cron. Otherwise, we'll need to figurte out why we seem to have stats files
here.
