Hi Vittorio,

re: getting GEM data from idd.unidata.ucar.edu

Yes, this should work.  We get the data from CMC using:

# CMC/GEM
request GEM     "CMC_reg_"      ldm.meteo.ec.gc.ca

Whenever you are in doubt about whether or not you are ALLOWed
to REQUEST data from an upstream feed host, the best thing to
do is to run the LDM utility 'notifyme'.  Here is an example
that should be pertinent to the question at hand:

<as 'ldm' on weather and/or climate>
notifyme -vl- -f GEM -h idd.unidata.ucar.edu

The output from this command will tell you if your machine is ALLOWed
to REQUEST data from the machine specified.  If you wait long enough
(GEM data does not flow continuously), you will see the receipt of
GEM data on the upstream host idd.unidata.ucar.edu.

re:
> Thanks for your help!

No worries.

Cheers,

Tom
