Hi Shawn, re: > We have changed our server name from 'modeling2.acd.ucar.edu' to > 'modeling2.acom.ucar.edu'. If I remember correctly, you need this > information (and it might be why a couple of my feeds are no longer > working after the server name change, even after emailing the hosts of > those data to get things updated on their end). IDD feed REQUEST(s) made to the top level IDD relays that we (Unidata Program Center) maintain (idd.unidata.ucar.edu and iddb.unidata.ucar.edu) should work by virtue of the being both forward and reverse DNS for your machine: % nslookup modeling2.acom.ucar.edu Server: 208.67.222.222 Address: 208.67.222.222#53 Non-authoritative answer: Name: modeling2.acom.ucar.edu Address: 128.117.136.2 % nslookup 128.117.136.2 Server: 208.67.222.222 Address: 208.67.222.222#53 Non-authoritative answer: 2.136.117.128.in-addr.arpa name = modeling2.acom.ucar.edu. Authoritative answers can be found from: However, ff you are REQUESTing one or more feeds from a different upstream (e.g., NOAA, etc.), then you will need to contact them regarding the renaming of your machine as their ldmd.conf ALLOW may be specific to the old name of your machine. Question: - what are the REQUEST line(s) in your ~ldm/etc/ldmd.conf file?
