Angel,

Thanks, this will make troubleshooting much easier.

Right.

OK, I logged on and see that McIDAS environment variables in shell
scripts used to run McIDAS things in the 'ldm' account have been setup
in a non-standard way.  Instead of me trying to sort through all of the
potential problems that can occur from this setup, I propose to change
the setup to match the recommendations I make in my McIDAS web pages.
By doing this, I believe that upgrades and recoveries from problems
will be easier in the future.  I don't want to make any of these
changes, however, until you give me the go ahead.
