On the path in that doc is not literal.  The real path is usually 
C:\Progra~1\GES\EDT\BIN\elm.exe.  Note that I used the 8.3 name instead of 
"Program Files".  There was a bug at one time where if you had a space in the 
name it would be put in the devconfig without quotes. As a result I make sure 
not to have spaces in the name.

Note a few more things:

1) Gresham has really good doc. Their website is 
http://www.gresham-computing.com/.  They have a document that walks you through 
the entire process and lets you know what information you need in your elm.cnf. 
 If that name is new to you then even if you get the external library path 
correct things won't work

2) With TSM V5.3 you no longer need to use Gresham.  They are a good company 
and have a good product so I'm not knocking them but unfortunately for them and 
fortunately for us what they do is not included at no extra charge in TSM.

Are you looking at the right documentation version for your system? For
example, the 5.2.2 Admin Guide for Windows on page 185 illustrates
performing an "update path" to define the externalmanager, not "update
library".
