Will the new machine take over CONDUIT ingest duties that are now being done by munchkin.caps.ou.edu? We are trying to get all LDM-5 and LDM-6.0.10/11 machines to stop requesting data from top level IDD relay nodes (munchkin is running LDM-5 and it is requesting CONDUIT data from thelma.ucar.edu, _the_ top IDD relay node in the US). We are not to the point of denying LDM-5 connections to top level IDD machines, but we may be forced to at some point in the future. I am hoping that your new machine is a replacement for munchkin. If it is not, can munchkin's LDM be upgraded? >I've run into one problem. Program >"dcmetr" likes to seg fault a lot, as in several times an hour. Our version >of GEMPAK is from 2002, so I'm hoping a GEMPAK software upgrade will fix the >problem. I've put in a request to your Admin people for the upgrade. What is the OS of the new machine? > Kevin W. Thomas > Center for Analysis and Prediction of Storms > University of Oklahoma > Norman, Oklahoma > Email: address@hidden Cheers, Tom Yoksas
