Your script differs considerably from our example script: 
<http://www.unidata.ucar.edu/software/ldm/ldm-current/basics/configuring.html#boot>
---so I'm not sure how much help I'll be.

I notice that the "/bin/su - ldm -c" prefix isn't used in the
"status" command.  Perhaps that's the cause of its problem.

I don't see any "if/then" constructions in your script, so I don't
see what could cause the problem with the "start" command.  Does
the command "ldmadmin start" work when executed by the LDM user?
