I'm getting this message emailed to me from my root account on every machine I have LDM 6.8.0 on. Running the ldmadmin newlog command manually yields no problems.Couldn't invoke the ntpdate(1) utility, "ntpdate": No such file or directory. Set the value of the variable "$ntpdate" in the configuration-file, /home/ldm/etc/ldmadmin-pl.conf, to the pathname of the ntpdate(1) utility. You should either fix the problem (recommended) or disable time-checking by setting the variable "$check_time" to 0 in the configuration-file, /home/ldm/etc/ldmadmin-pl.conf, (not recommended).
Turns out that the answer is that RHEL and CentOS don't have paths for /usr/sbin in their default .login or .bashrc files. Putting them in there, or putting an absolute path into the ladmadmin-pl.conf entry easily fixes the issue.
Otherwise, LDM 6.8.0 is working great. ******************************************************************************* Gilbert Sebenste ******** (My opinions only!) ****** Staff Meteorologist, Northern Illinois University **** E-mail: sebenste@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx *** web: http://weather.admin.niu.edu ** *******************************************************************************
