Scott,

> [ldm@fetch1 ~]$ grep local /etc/syslog.conf
> local7.*                                       /var/log/boot.log
> local3.debug                                   /usr/local/ldm/logs/ldmd.log

The "local3.debug" entry looks correct.

The file /etc/syslog.conf should, however, also have the "none" entries for 
"local3" that are mentioned in the instructions.  Otherwise, LDM log messages 
will also be written to the system log file.

The protections on the installed hupsyslog(1) utility indicate that it won't be 
able to send a SIGHUP to the syslogd(8) processes -- causing it to reread its 
configuration-file.

Did the reinstallation of the LDM 6.4.6 set the ownership of the rpc.ldm and 
hupsyslog programs to "root" and are they now setuid?

Odd error.  Is there any corresponding message from fetch1's LDM?
