Troubleshooting an LDM system can be difficult.  Is there any way that I
could log-onto the system in question as user LDM?

Otherwise, please start with the following:

    1.  Go to the home directory of the LDM user.

    2.  Stop your LDM system:

            ldmadmin stop

    3.  Start your LDM system with verbose logging:

            ldmadmin start -v

    4.  Use the ldmsend(1) utility with verbose logging enabled to send
        a file to the LDM, e.g.,

            ldmsend -v -f EXP etc/ldmd.conf

    5.  Send me the LDM logfile (i.e., "logs/ldmd.log").

Be advised that there's a bug in the ldmsend utility in the LDM 6.0.2
release: the utility won't correctly send a data product to a running
LDM-6.  I'm currently fixing the problem.
