Thanks, Jeff.

I logged on again today.  First, I went to see what products are coming
in to your queue.  I did the following:

blizzard{ldm}51: ldmadmin watch
Oct 18 16:35:52 pqutil: mmap: 0 0 406470656: Resource temporarily
unavailable
Oct 18 16:35:52 pqutil: pq_open: /home/kramer3/users/ldm/data/ldm.pq:
Resource temporarily unavailable

This output revealed a problem.  The queue must be on a local disk. 
Your queue is on fujita, which is remotely mounted.  I know this by
doing the following:

blizzard{ldm}58: cd data
/home/kramer3/users/ldm/data

blizzard{ldm}59: df -k .
Filesystem            kbytes    used   avail capacity  Mounted on
fujita:/fujita12     17413250 14018792 3220326    82%    /home/fujita12
^^^^^^  

Doing just a 'df -k' shows me all local disk partitions, and the remote
partitions that have accessed recently:

blizzard{ldm}60: df -k

We need space on a local partition.  I would suggest /opt as it has
space and is logically more suitable than any of the other partitions. 
How about it?

Also, it looks like logging is not working for the ldm.  It's really
important for this to work so you can have some idea of what's going
on.  I see that /etc/syslog.conf does not have local0 configured
properly.  (See
http://www.unidata.ucar.edu/packages/ldm/ldmPreInstallList.html#s8 for
instructions about this, particularly the part referring to syslogd.) 
You need root priveleges to do this.  Please give this a try, then I'll
check it when you're done.  I'm here most of the day, so please ask if
you have any questions.
