Hi Fabian,

I'm a little confused about the setup you describe here.  I understand that 
users can type "ntl" from a terminal command prompt to show the NAWIPS GUI 
launcher, which includes buttons for NMAP2, NSHARP, and other programs.  But 
I'm not sure what you mean by "display the data on a new server", or what you 
mean by sending a config file from your new server in order to guide you to 
configure GEMPAK.

If you want to launch the NMAP2 program, you can do so either with the command 
"ntl", as you say, or directly with the command "nmap2" from the command line.  
How you describe NMAP2 and NTL running on your current(old) system is how it 
runs on all systems.  So if you have installed GEMPAK on your new system you 
should be able to launch the GUI programs the same as before.   If the behavior 
on the new system is different, you will need to walk me through the steps you 
are taking to launch the program.
