Re: LDM 1st time configuration

Hi Mike,

It appears from your previous message that you may be in some
collaborative agreement currently with the NWSFO in Ft. Worth.

We at Unidata have the mission of providing research and education
facilities, within WMO region 4, with meteorological data and support for
software used to distribute and display this data:

Many NWSFO's are currently using the LDM for data distribution within the
NWS and occassionally beyond there domains. Given that it appears you have
established a working relationship with Ft Worth, I suggest you arrange
with them the possibility of having them be your upstream host.

There are also restrictions associated with the data we distribute:

I hope this guides you in the proper direction, please feel free to
contact me further with any questions.

Thank you,

 -Jeff
