Very good. I just verified that there is both forward and reverse DNS
for your machine:
% nslookup BUBO.ORNITH.CORNELL.EDU
Server: 192.168.72.2
Address: 192.168.72.2#53
Non-authoritative answer:
Name: BUBO.ORNITH.CORNELL.EDU
Address: 128.84.13.0
% nslookup 128.84.13.0
Server: 192.168.72.2
Address: 192.168.72.2#53
Non-authoritative answer:
0.13.84.128.in-addr.arpa name = bubo.ornith.cornell.edu.
Reverse DNS is required to have because sites relaying data typically
create ALLOW rules based on fully qualified machine names.
FYI:
Another department in Cornell is already receiving the CONDUIT feed you
want, so it would be best to feed CONDUIT from them.
Here is an example ~ldm/etc/ldmd.conf REQUEST line for CONDUIT data:
REQUEST CONDUIT ".*" idd.nrcc.cornell.edu
The NEXRAD Level 2 radar data in the NEXRAD2 datastream you can REQUEST from
one or more top level IDD relay machines:
idd.meteo.psu.edu
idd.taum.edu
idd.unidata.ucar.edu
An example ~ldm/etc/ldmd.conf REQUEST line would look like:
REQUEST NEXRAD2 ".*" idd.meteo.psu.edu
We suggest that you make redundant feed REQUESTs for each datastream.
For instance, replicate the REQUEST lines in your ~ldm/etc/ldmd.conf file:
REQUEST NEXRAD2 ".*" idd.meteo.psu.edu
REQUEST NEXRAD2 ".*" idd.tamu.edu
The same thing is true for CONDUIT:
RREQUEST CONDUIT ".*" idd.meteo.psu.edu
REQUEST CONDUIT ".*" idd.nrcc.cornell.edu
The first thing you should do is verify that your machine is ALLOWed
to REQUEST the data you want from the upstream hosts mentioned above:
<as 'ldm' on bubo.ornith.cornell.edu>
notifyme -vl- -f CONDUIT -h idd.nrcc.cornell.edu
notifyme -vl- -f NEXRAD2 -h idd.meteo.psu.edu
notifyme -vl- -f NEXRAD2 -h idd.tamu.edu
notifyme -vl- -f NEXRAD2 -h idd.unidata.ucar.edu
If you are ALLOWed on the upstream host, your 'notifyme' invocation will return
a line that looks like:
Mar 08 22:46:28 notifyme[30018] NOTE: NOTIFYME(idd.meteo.psu.edu): OK
NB: you will have to kill the 'notifyme' invocations with a CTRL-C.
re:
> Thank you.
No worries. Please let us know if you run into any snags.
Cheers,
Tom
