William, Have you created an LDM user? If so, did you unpack the compressed LDM tar-file in the home directory of the LDM user? If so, then execute the equivalent of the following commands in your user shell: cd ldm-6.11.6/src ./configure >configure.log 2>&1 && echo Configured && make install >install.log 2>&1 && echo Installed Be prepared to enter the password of the superuser (i.e., "root") if you know it; otherwise, just keep hitting the "enter" key. > When I unzip the .tar.gz file, there are many folders and files. I don't know > which one to open to initiate the installation. There are also some files > that my mac can open.
