Hi Xiaodong,
I did both an ldmping and a traceroute to your machine. Here are the

This ldmping tells me that two things are happening. One is a slow
connection, but we knew that was a problem for you, right? The second
is that my LDM can't get to port 388 and is thus trying to contact the
portmapper.

This traceroute shows either very slow connections or a firewall (or
firewalls) at your end.
I recommend that you contact the network people and ensure that they
have opened port 388. Let me know when this has happened, and I'll try
the ldmping again to confirm that your machine is accessible.
Also, make sure that the portmapper is running on your machine.
Currently, the LDM requires that the portmapper be running on the
localhost in order to start up. To check this, just do "ps -ef | grep
portmap". You should see a process called portmap or rpcbind running.
