Alan,

I don't understand how this can be, but you can do the substitutions by
hand.  It will only take 5 minutes. The idea is to replace placeholders 
"@PERL@" with the real location of perl, @LDMHOME@ with ldm home, and
@HOSTNAME@ with the ldm host. So do greps, ie

wcfields.unidata.ucar.edu.rkambic> grep PERL *in
ldmadmin.in:#!@PERL@
ldmadmin.in:$perl = "@PERL@";
ldmfail.in:#!@PERL@
ldmprods.in:#!@PERL@
netcheck.in:#!@PERL@
syscheck.in:#!@PERL@  

so in the above files do the replacements, likewise for the others vars.
Then copy the .in files to file without the .in,  ie

% cp ldmadmin.in ldmadmin

Make sure the files are executable. That's it.

Good, but I would install a full LDM on the DAS machine.
