Bob,

The registry parameter "/server/time-offset" specifies how far back in time a 
downstream LDM should specify in its subscription request. If you set its value 
to "0" via the command

    regutil -u 0 /server/time-offset

or by editing the file "~ldm/etc/registry/xml", then it should start from the 
current time when you restart it.
