Bill, I rearranged the dir structure to fit the ldm structure so future releases should be breeze to update. I installed the binary ldm-5.0.8 and started it. Some configuration is not entirely correct because the ldm starts and receives data but the gempak decoders don't start. So I changed the runtime link back to the ldm-5.0 version and everything seems to run ok. At this point, I'll look at it again on Mon. At this time, all the ldm stuff is installed under : /system/local/ldm I moved your scripts dir up to the /system/local/ldm level. Let me know if you see any configuration changes that I missed. Also, the ldm was in an abnormal state because it was once started as root instead of ldm, caused some rogue ldm processes to be hanging around and some file permission type problems. I'll log in Mon to finish, almost 6: MST Robb...
