Hello Deb,
Well, I'm sorry to report that it looks like our binary won't work for
your j210. Below is a message from our system administrator regarding a
different processor on the j machines. I'm afraid that leaves you with
having to build from source.
In our next binary distribution I'll use the +DAportable flag -
hopefully that will mitigate this problem.
In general, building from source is not hard. If you have a problem
please let me know.
Anne

Anne,
The issue is with our LDM binary distribution. We've built a native
distribution on a HP PA-2.0 processor system which means the binary
won't
run on a PA-1.1 system. To assure that our binaries run on the widest
variety of HP platforms, we should build on a HP 10.20 system and set
the +DAportable cflag so that PA-1.1 binaries are created...
>From the binary distribution;
# file rpc.ldmd
rpc.ldmd: PA-RISC2.0 shared executable dynamically linked -not
stripped
# file /bin/date
/bin/date: PA-RISC1.1 shared executable dynamically linked
