Beth,

The Unidata web pages on "Data" provide links to the CONDUIT data stream
products, such as:
http://my.unidata.ucar.edu/content/data/conduit/ldm_idd/index.html

The GFS data is prefixed with MT.avn, while the ETA is prefixed with MT.eta.
The products in CONDUIT originate from the NWS ftp servers, and use the naming
conventions as described:
http://www.nws.noaa.gov/datamgmt/filstnd.html

To request subsets of the CONDUIT data stream, use your LDM request pattern
in ldmd.conf. For example, to request the GFS data sets, and the ETA grid 212
data, a pattern would look like "(MT.avn|MT.eta.*#212)".
