Messages should be logged to ~ldm/var/logs/ldmd.log. Tell me if they're not.

Because you're not interested in the data, itself, you should not have an EXEC 
entry for pqact(1) in the LDM configuration-file: the log file contains the 
information you're interested in.

> In /etc/ntp.conf, the setting of UVA FDT clock server is:
> 
> server owamp.wash.net.internet2.edu iburst # Internet2 - WashingtonDC, USA
> server owamp.seat.net.internet2.edu iburst # Internet2 - Seattle, WA USA
> server owamp.newy.net.internet2.edu iburst # Internet2 - New York, NY USA
> server owamp.hous.net.internet2.edu iburst # Internet2 - Houston, TX USA
>
> I think our FDT should synchronize UCAR's clock server or the time server
> which UCAR

Because the time resolution of the log messages is only one second, it 
shouldn't matter what time server you synchronize to.
