Hi Gyorgyi, re: > Thank you for your answer. No worries. re: > Some background information to clarify our request. > > We are in the process of out-phasing our old ldm servers coriolis and > cori.

OK. re: > Not bids.met.tamu, but nids.met.tamu.edu. Sorry, the spell checker took > over my email last time. Been there! re: > So, we only will have one operational, and a failover, not 4 servers. OK, this is much better. re: > In the meantime we would love to have the new upstream feeders to be > available for all for testing purposes. We can provide two upstream sites that should already be configured to honor LDM/IDD feed REQUESTs to all of your machines ** assuming that reverse DNS exists for all of your machines **: idd.unidata.ucar.edu idd.meteo.psu.edu In the past, the third upstream so configured would be the top level IDD relay that TAMU operates. I must tell you that if TAMU decides to discontinue its IDD relay service, there will be a HUGE impact on the community! re: > Thank you, No worries.
