That's consistent with your LDM server not being owned by root and
not setuid.  In that situation, the LDM server wouldn't be able to
obtain port 388 or register with the portmapper; consequently,
downstream LDM-s would not be able to connect to it.

Try the following AS THE LDM USER AND ASSUMING THAT LDM 6.3.0 IS
RUNNING AND NOT LDM 6.4.6:

cd
cd ldm-6.4.6/src
make distclean
./configure --enable-logging=local3 >configure.log 2>&1 &&
make >make.log 2>&1 &&
make install >install.log 2>&1 &&
su root -c 'make install_setuids' &&
echo LDM package installed
cd
ldmadmin stop
ldmadmin delqueue
rm runtime
ln -s ldm-6.4.6 runtime
ldmadmin mkqueue -f
ldmadmin start
