To: address@hidden (Mike Schmidt) Date: Tue, 21 Sep 1999 15:05:00 -0600 (MDT) address@hidden (Peter Neilley) Mike, The host name desi.unidata.ucar.edu does not show in the *.stats file under LDM's logs directory anymore. Instead it is noaaport.unidata.ucar.edu now. I have fixed my script to check on both host names for now. - I use the host name to make sure the noaaport data is coming through each hour. I would like to know why it was desi.unidata and now it is noaaport.unidata. The "allow" line allows noaaport to feed iita but does not allow iita to login to noaaport/desi.
