Very good, I'm glad that you are back up. re: > However, I have been working on getting the LDM to start as user ldm on boot, > and > nothing seems to be working for me!

Please remember that you will have to: - edit the file to match your LDM setup - copy the script to /etc/init.d - add autostart of the script using 'chkconfig' as 'root' - test the script to make sure that it works in your environment I mean become 'root' and run the script to make sure that it works in your environment.
