Hi Reymer, re: machines to ALLOW IDD access to on idd.cise-nsf.gov > Please add this machines: > > poseidon.fisica.ucr.ac.cr 163.178.110.222 > cluster.fisica.ucr.ac.cr 200.9.33.37 OK, done. However, there is a problem with both of these: they do not have forward and reverse DNS: % nslookup poseidon.fisica.ucr.ac.cr Server: 128.117.140.62 Address: 128.117.140.62#53 Non-authoritative answer: Name: poseidon.fisica.ucr.ac.cr Address: 163.178.110.222 % nslookup 163.178.110.222 Server: 128.117.140.62 Address: 128.117.140.62#53 ** server can't find 222.110.178.163.in-addr.arpa.: NXDOMAIN % nslookup 163.178.110.222 Server: 128.117.140.62 Address: 128.117.140.62#53 ** server can't find 222.110.178.163.in-addr.arpa.: NXDOMAIN The manner in which I have added ALLOWs is brittle, so it could break. The best solution is for you (UCR) to get forward AND reverse DNS setup for these machines! re: > Thanks again for your help. Please give the ALLOW setup a test on each of your machines: <as 'ldm'> notifyme -vl- -F ANY -h idd.cise-nsf.gov Cheers, Tom -- **************************************************************************** Unidata User Support UCAR Unidata Program (303) 497-8642 P.O.
