HI Adam, Also, when we fix the DNS > problem everything worked fine untill the ldm just stoped again. What was the message from the log when it stopped? If we > ever try to restart the ldm once it has crashed like that without > rebooting the system, Prior to re-starting do you check to make sure ALL LDM processes have stopped? It is very hard to determine the source of this issue without the relevant log files...otherwise I would be guessing. You can change the # of logs you generate in ldmadmin.conf if that is becoming an issue... Thank you, -Jeff ____________________________ _____________________ Jeff Weber address@hidden Unidata Support PH:303-497-8676 NWS-COMET Case Study Library FX:303-497-8690 University Corp for Atmospheric Research 3300 Mitchell Ln http://www.unidata.ucar.edu/staff/jweber Boulder,Co 80307-3000 ________________________________________ ______________________ On Fri, 26 Apr 2002, adam taylor (994) wrote: > Nope, not a Athlon CPU or athlon chipset.
