Marty,

That command is correct, *if* you want to FILE data-products under the "data" 
subdirectory of the LDM user's home directory.

Because the pqact(1) configuration file FILES-s data-products under the "/data" 
directory (which is an absolute pathname), the ln(1) command is actually 
unnecessary. I included it because I didn't realize that you wanted the 
data-products to actually be under the existing "/data" directory.

If that's where you want the data-products to be filed (under the "/data" 
directory), then the ln(1) command is unnecessary.

I hope this is clear. Talk to me if it's not.
