Merrill, > I upgraded LDM to 6.5.1 and did the preinstall steps except for > disabling selinux. I get 50 to 5000 breakin attempts every day. > I�d rather not disable all the security. Can I log to a file in > /var/log without turning off selinux? We've never used SELINUX, don't want to use SELINUX, and probably will never use SELINUX. Consequently, we have no idea how to use SELINUX. You might try having the LDM log to the /var/log partition via a symbolic link. Try this as the LDM user: sudo mkdir /var/log/ldm sudo chown ldm /var/log/ldm cd mv logs logs.old ln -s /var/log/ldm logs ldmadmin newlog ls -l logs/ > The model ran last night, > but the files are still variable sizes.

Please let me know if the approach I described works or not. Regards, Steve Emmerson Ticket Details =================== Ticket ID: JMW-745674 Department: Support LDM Priority: Normal Status: On Hold
