The errors I see in the PDF you sent that contained LDM log file output indicates that there is a problem using the 'ldmfile.sh' script that should have been extracted from the compressed tarball that we sent you to the ~ldm/etc/TDS/util directory. This is puzzling. Please send back the out put of the following commands: <as 'ldm'> cd ~ldm pwd ls -alt etc/TDS/util ls -alt etc/TDS/decoders ls -alt /data/ldm/pub When we figure out why the 'ldmfile.sh' actions are not working, we will be able to advise you how to take corrective action. Again, my ability to respond quickly or interactively (I am in a location that is 16 hours ahead of you) is very limited, so troubleshooting the problems you are experiencing will take much longer than usual. For this I apologize! Cheers, Tom -- **************************************************************************** Unidata User Support UCAR Unidata Program (303) 497-8642 P.O.
