Hi David,

Yes, atm became inaccessible at approximately 8:30 Saturday morning.
A quick check shows that it remains inaccessible now.

At about 9 am yesterday, I sent out a note to the ldm-users email list
to failover to alternate feed sites.  Here is the text:

  IDD sites feeding off of atm.geo.nsf.gov:
  
  The top level IDD relay node atm.geo.nsf.gov is currently inaccessible.
  If you feed from atm, please switch to feed from your failover.  
  
  If your failover site is inaccessible, please failover to one of the
  following machines using the preferance order listed:

  We will send an email when we believe that it is safe to fail back
  to atm.

Since I see that you are subscribed to the ldm-users email list under
address@hidden, you should have received the message.  Did you not
receive the notice to failover?  If so, we will have to figure out why
the email did not get through to you.
