There is a little quirk about the latency page in that without a reconnect from your feed your machine does not show up. So if your connect has been stable for a long time, it does not re-generate to the latency page. I will check with Robb to see the times and dates of this generation and then we can see if twister is showing up. I do not know if masking the IP via the router will/should make any difference. I will check on that. I will keep you posted on your latency data.. -Jeff ____________________________ _____________________ Jeff Weber address@hidden Unidata Support PH:303-497-8676 NWS-COMET Case Study Library FX:303-497-8690 University Corp for Atmospheric Research 3300 Mitchell Ln http://www.unidata.ucar.edu/staff/jweber Boulder,Co 80307-3000 ________________________________________ ______________________ On Wed, 31 Jan 2001, Unidata Support wrote: > > ------- Forwarded Message > > >To: address@hidden > >From: David Fitzgerald <address@hidden> > >Subject: twisters ip address and ldm stats > >Organization: UCAR/Unidata > >Keywords: 200101311620.f0VGKIX03045 > > I noticed we are not showing up on the routing/latency pages.
