Hi Tom, 

I am sorry for the late response, your e-mail slipped through....

It is desirable to have port 111 (portmapper) but not necessary.

In :

/etc/services 

ldm 388/udp unidata        # UCAR Unidata LDM
ldm 388/tcp unidata        # UCAR Unidata LDM

Should be all that is required.

Thank you,


-Jeff
