Ken,

If the ldmadmin script is configured correctly,  probably is because your
ldm is running.  Use the following crontab entry instead:

35  * * * *  bin/ldmadmin dostats

You probably have a parameter wrong in the mailpqstats crontab entry.
I believe the -d flag should be  -d /home/ldm/logs but that's taken care
of when you call it from ldmadmin.
