> Organization: UCAR/Unidata

The above message contained the following:

> Institution: Atmospheric Sciences Dept, UCLA
> Package Version: ldm -6.0.10
> Operating System: Redhat8.0
> Hardware Information: linux PC, sundog.atmos.ucla.edu
> Inquiry: Hi. Steven Emmerson offered to do a remote
>     "installation/tune-up" for ldm 6. I'd like to receive a diagnosis if
>     it's still offered.

We'd be happy to take a look.  Can we log onto the systems as the LDM
user?
