Hi Kevin,

We have been asking all sites participating in the IDD and running
LDM-6 to report real time statistics back to us.  Without these
statistics, we can not effectively come up with a tuned network
topology for relaying data, and, therefore, we are not able to
help folks investigate their data reception problems.

So, I am again asking you to make the small change to your ~ldm/ldmd.conf
file that will report the real time statistcs and then stop and restart
your LDM:

<login as 'ldm'>
cd ~ldm/etc

-- edit ldmd.conf and add the exec line that reports real time statistics
   back to us:

exec    "rtstats -h rtstats.unidata.ucar.edu>"

This should be the last 'exec' line in the set of 'exec' lines at the
top of the file.

After adding the line above, you need to stop and restart your LDM:

ldmadmin stop

-- wait for the LDM to completely stop --

ldmadmin start

We would appreciate it if you could make this change as soon as possible
(like today sometime).

Thanks for your help in this.

Tom
