Hello Ahsan, You will need to download and install the LDM on a machine that has BOTH forward and reverse DNS...and hopefully no firewall or a firewall you have some control over :)...we run the LDM on port 388. To download and install the LDM, please visit: http://www.unidata.ucar.edu/software/ldm/ Install instructions are here as well. (please use the latest version LDM 6.9.7) (You will need to provide an e-mail address and affiliation to register with us to be able to download, everyone who downloads needs to be a registered user, it is quick and painless) Once the LDM is installed, we will assign an upstream host for you to feed from..this takes only a few minutes, and a few edits in your ldmd.conf file (we can help) So please install the LDM software and let us/me know when that is done and we can then move forward for the automatic reception of the CMC GEM model output.
