This indicates one of two things:
- your ~ldm/etc/ldmd.conf file does not have an active ALLOW for your own
  machine
  Check the file to make sure that you have an uncommented entry that
  looks like:
ALLOW   ANY     ^((localhost|loopback)|(127\.0\.0\.1\.?$))      .*
  If you have this ALLOW line, but it is commented out, you should 
  uncomment the line and then stop/restart your LDM.
- if your ldmd.conf file has this ALLOW, then check the network configuration
  In particular, check /etc/hosts.  It should have an entry that looks
  like:
127.0.0.1       fedoraVM        localhost.localdomain   localhost
  Here, 'fedoraVM' would be replaced by something specific to your machine.
Cheers,
Tom
