Hmm... on September 26, I sent along an email that included a request to consider adding other blanket ALLOWs: By the way, in case you are interested, here is the list of other international sites that are going to need new upstream providers: host3.smn.gob.ar Argentina - National Weather Service ubiru.cptec.inpe.br Brazil - CPTEC ufrj.br Brazil - UFRJ vkepler.sca.uqam.ca Canada - UQAM optimus.meteo.McGill.ca Canada - McGill hqlx33.ust.hk Hong Kong - Hong Kong University of Science & Technology hqlx92.ust.hk Hong Kong - " rcz006.ust.hk Hong Kong - " idd.uevora.pt Portugal - Universidade de Evora atm78-fis.clients.ua.pt Portugal - Universidade de Aveiro z115l243.static.ctm.edu Mcau - Weather Service in Mcau We cover these and others with blanket ALLOWs: allow ANY-LIGHTNING-WSI-PCWS \.ar$ # Argentina allow ANY-LIGHTNING-WSI-PCWS \.bb$ # Barbados allow ANY-LIGHTNING-WSI-PCWS \.br$ # Brazil allow ANY-LIGHTNING-WSI-PCWS \.ca$ # Canada allow ANY-LIGHTNING-WSI-PCWS \.hk$ # Hong Kong allow ANY-LIGHTNING-WSI-PCWS \.pt$ # Portugal allow ANY-LIGHTNING-WSI-PCWS \.vn$ # Vietnam I recall that Gerry jumped in and said that he would implement these ALLOWs, but I guess that I was just imagining that (I was trading emails with other sites about the same issues). Thanks again for adding the ALLOW(s)! Cheers, Tom -- **************************************************************************** Unidata User Support UCAR Unidata Program (303) 497-8642 P.O.
