Hi John, 

Neither McGill or UBC are reporting stats back to Unidata:

To report stats back to us the following line must be included in your 
ldmd.conf file, in your ~ldm/etc directory:

<from file ldmd.conf>

# Exec Entries

#
# Programs that can share a queue with rpc.ldmd server, these programs
# are started by the "exec" command and are in the same process group.
#
# Regarding pqbinstats, while pqbinstats will generate .stats files in
# your logs directory, it is necessary to also run 'ldmadmin dostats'
# once per hour via cron in order to email the stats to the UPC and
# remove the .stats files that are no longer needed.  See
# http://www.unidata.ucar.edu/packages/ldm/ldmConfigInstallList.html#s7
# for more information.
# rtstats uses the LDM to send product latency statistics to the UPC.
# We are currently evolving from pqbinstats to rtstats, but in the
# mean time we hope sites will run both.  For more info on rtstats
# please see the man page.
exec    "rtstats -f ANY -h rtstats.unidata.ucar.edu"

We purge the e-mails from the archives, but maybe the phone number can get you 
on the right path.

If you cannot gain access to UBC's machine(s), please let us know and we can 
reconfigure the topology.
