Bob,

Double check your tab characters that should be between
HRS and ^H.[I-P]
as wee al for all successive lines there, and between PIPE and /apps.

If you copied and pasted from an xterm, chances are, your tabs were 
changed to spaces.

Steve:
   That seems to have done the trick.  No errors now in ldmd.log file.
   Thanks,
   Bob
