Bill, I upgraded your ldm to ldm-5.0.8 with the Y2k compliant pqact. I had to make a link from /local/ldm to /system/local/ldm because the binary install must of used that link. I started the ldm and it seems to be running ok. There were many write errors on the decoders because some of the output files were owned by root without write permission for the ldm. This happens when the ldm is started by root instead of ldm. I sure there are more file ownerships to be changed. I don't know at this time is there are other decoder problems, I have to look into it further. You proabably know the details about your decoders. Let me know if there is anything else you want me to look at. Robb...
