Hi Russ, I'm jumping in to add a couple of comments: - we did remove the reference to your internal IP address from previous email exchanges we had with you, but you must remember that this was only from our stores. We have no control over the exchanges that have been been made public by web crawlers. Eventually, these messages will disappear also, but we have no idea of when - we didn't realize that you did not realize that one must stop/restart an LDM each time a change is made in the LDM configuration file, ~ldm/etc/ldmd.conf. Changes to existing pattern-action file actions, on the other hand, do not require a restart of the LDM to become active. Instead, one can force a re-read of the pattern-action files in use by: <as 'ldm'> ldmadmin pqactcheck <- always check for gross errors (e.g., typos, etc.)! ldmadmin pqactHUP <- forces all active pattern-action files to be reread and modifications to become active Cheers, Tom Russ Lancaster wrote: > I didn't know our emails were going to be on the web.
