Good.

Good.

It means that SELINUX is disabled.

A few more things:
    5. Verify that ~ldm/logs is either a directory or a symbolic link to 
~ldm/var/logs;
    6. Verify that the ultimate destination of ~ldm/logs is owned by the LDM 
user;
    7. verify that ~ldm/bin/hupsyslog is owned by root and setuid.
