Hi Chris, There is no need to contact the site managers at this time (diagnostics) obviously if we choose to request data we will need to talk with them :) Sitelist: http://www.unidata.ucar.edu/projects/idd/sitelist.html I am not quite sure what you mean by "minimum performance stats" but you can modify the packet size in the ping utility to more closely imitate LDM packets and their size... Let me know how I can help if needed.. Thanks, -Jeff ____________________________ _____________________ Jeff Weber address@hidden Unidata Support PH:303-497-8676 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 Tue, 15 Oct 2002, Chris Herbster wrote: > Jeff, > > Would we need to coordinate with the LDM managers at these sites to do this, > or just find the machine from the contact list and try pinging, etc?
