Dear LDM-User, Version 6.0.12 of the LDM package is now available. It fixes a few, minor bugs found in version 6.0.11. Here's what the release-notes say: Modified strategy for determining which program version is used when connecting to an upstream LDM (version 5 or 6): a downstream LDM will now connect using version 5 if and only if a previous version 6 connection attempt receives a program version mismatch indication (RPC_PROGVERSMISMATCH). This should eliminate the possibility of a downstream LDM-6 connecting to an upstream LDM-6 using LDM-5 protocols during the "window of vulnerability" that exists when the upstream LDM system is started. [Gilbert, the above fix might ensure that whatever happened with your LDM won't happen again.] Synchronous checks have been added in several places to make the LDM more responsive to a termination request (such as from an "ldmadmin stop"). To work around an oddity in Unisys ingest systems, the program pqing(1) has been modified to allow an extraneous newline between the end-of-product and beginning-of-product delimiters. The package is available for download via the web from the LDM-6.0.12 home-page at http://my.unidata.ucar.edu/content/software/ldm/ldm-6.0.12/ where you will also find installation instructions. If you know what you're doing, you can obtain the package directly via FTP at ftp://ftp.unidata.ucar.edu/pub/ldm/ldm-6.0.12.tar.Z If you have any questions, comments, or problems, please contact <support@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>. Regards, Steve Emmerson LDM Developer
