Hi Chad, Great! I will need to find a host(s) that carry these data.. NLDN will be point to point via SUNY-Albany GEM will be point to point via the CMC (these requests can take days, NLDN is usually very quick, but again will be point to point) I will initiate the dialog for GEM and NLDN data access. traceroute indicates you may be on I2: (jweber) laraine:/home/jweber 3 % traceroute 158.83.74.22 traceroute to 158.83.74.22 (158.83.74.22), 30 hops max, 40 byte packets 1 flra-n140 (128.117.140.252) 1 ms 1 ms 1 ms 2 gin-n243-80.ucar.edu (128.117.243.81) 1 ms 1 ms 1 ms 3 frgp-gw-1.ucar.edu (128.116.254.250) 2 ms 2 ms 2 ms 4 192.43.217.130 (192.43.217.130) 2 ms 2 ms 2 ms 5 kscyng-dnvrng.abilene.ucaid.edu (198.32.8.14) 12 ms 12 ms 12 ms 6 iplsng-kscyng.abilene.ucaid.edu (198.32.8.80) 259 ms 263 ms 255 ms 7 chinng-iplsng.abilene.ucaid.edu (198.32.8.76) 26 ms 34 ms 27 ms 8 nycmng-chinng.abilene.ucaid.edu (198.32.8.83) 45 ms 60 ms 55 ms 9 washng-nycmng.abilene.ucaid.edu (198.32.8.85) 51 ms 50 ms 50 ms 10 204.238.76.1 (204.238.76.1) 53 ms 53 ms 53 ms 11 204.238.76.14 (204.238.76.14) 55 ms 55 ms 55 ms 12 * *^C hmmmm, 204.238.76.1 is Drexel, do you share network with Drexel? http://abilene.internet2.edu/community/participants/list.html indicates Drexel as a participant, but not California University of Penn..? The reason I ask, is that we have a machine in the east that has the data you desire, but can only deliver via I2 (abilene) Let me know, may be Monday before we nail this down..
