[LDM #ODB-958491]: LDM and RHEL 8

Hi Bryan,

> Enterprise Linux  (RHEL) 8.

As far as I know, the LDM already works with RHEL 8. Please inform us if you 
know different.

Earlier version of the LDM did have a problem with SElinux. The canonical 
pathname of the LDM log file is ~ldm/var/logs/ldmd.log. By default, SElinux 
won't allow the system logging daemon to write into file that are not in a 
sanctioned directory and we haven't figured-out how to configure SElinux to 
allow this. This was one of the reasons version 6.13 of the LDM uses a 
different logging mechanism by default. This and later versions shouldn't have 
any problems logging.

Regards,
Steve Emmerson
