I have failed over to ALB for all data >except nexrad (which I do not have permission to get from them). I setup atm.geo.nsf.gov to allow these feeds for any machine on the msrc.sunysb.edu subnet (the machine listed in our site contact list is atmsci.msrc.sunysb.edu but I can not ldmping it). Please let me know if your IDD/LDM machine is different. Also, we have: David Myers address@hidden 516-632-8682 as the SUNY Stony Brook site contact. Please let me know if this should be changed. >Thanks for your time and consideration.... The feed above is a temporary one. As soon as Penn State is reachable, please fail back to it. Thanks.
