Kevin and Clint,

Clint is absolutely correct.  In order to get you going again, I modified
atm's ~ldm/etc/ldmd.conf file to feed CPE-65-30-96-123.kc.rr.com.  Like
Clint said: if this address is not static, the feed will fail when
the address changes again.  One solution would be to allow all feed
requests from kc.rr.com, but that is not going to happen since it
would be inviting feed requests from everyone using rr.com in Kansas
City.
