The above message contained the following:

Good.  I hope you realize that you shouldn't need to execute the
feedme(1) program.

Wordpad!?  #@$%! Jim.  I'm a UNIX guru, not a window washer!  :-)

Sorry.  Couldn't resist.  I can view it just fine.

I take it you can't do an ldmping(1) to Granite from Granite.

I see that from you logfile:

    May 18 16:43:30 granite rpc.ldmd[2997]: Denying connection from 
granite.npmoc-sd.navy.mil 

It's strange that this time it said "granite.npmoc-sd.navy.mil" instead
of "localhost.localdomain".

Try

    1.  Adding an ALLOW entry for granite.npmoc-sd.navy.mil to the LDM
        configuration-file.

    2.  Restarting the LDM

    3.  Trying the notifyme(1) request again.

    4.  Trying an ldmping(1) on Granite to Granite.

Let me know.
