Hi Gerry,

I saw the forward that the ports had been opened to bigbird.  I
did a quick access test through port 112 and did not get anywhere.
I will perform a more thorough test later today and let you know the
results.

My bad!  I had a typo in the xcd_run line for HDS data in ~ldm/etc/pqact.conf.
I just corrected the typo, checked the file things that will cause pqact
to exit, and sent a HUP to pqact:

<as 'ldm'>
edit ~ldm/etc/pqact.conf and change 'xcd_run DRS' to 'xcd_run HRS'
ldmadmin pqactcheck
ldmadmin pqactHUP

>And, as you should already have, the ports are open!

I will do a more thorough test in a bit.

Cheers,

Tom
