[IDD #ICA-648762]: COAMPS and NOGAPS data

Hi Paul and Brice,

:-)

Excellent.

Here are some web references that should help (last URLs in a chain are the
operative ones):

I know the feeling :-)

OK.  Just so you know:

I am still unable to do a 'ldmping' or 'notifyme' to what I think is your LDM
machine, xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx.

Paul: you should should be able to see if my 'ldmping' to xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx
from yakov.unidata.ucar.edu was denied by the LDM.  If you see a Denying
message, it will mean that the LDM configuration file, ~ldm/etc/ldmd.conf,
will need to be modified to ALLOW us to REQUEST data.  If you do _not_
see such a Denying log message, and assuming that your LDM logging is actually
working (may seem silly, but I spend way too much time getting folks to 
correctly setup syslogd logging for LDM use), it would mean that there is
likely some sort of firewall block of the packets coming from my machine
to yours.

Cheers,

Tom
