Hi Kevin,

I didn't see your inquiry until just now, sorry (it was waiting in an unexpected
department)!

re:

Is this related to the email that we got from Paul Wahner?

Actually, the ~ldm/etc/ldmd.conf 'request' line syntax does not include
the capability for a 'not', and it is likely that the regular expression that 
would
exclude a particular grid would be cumbersome.  

An upstream LDM running LDM-6.4+, however, can restrict the data that will be 
sent
to the downstream fairly easily.

> Thanks!

No worries.  Sorry for the delay in responding.


Cheers,

Tom
