Hi Murray,

re:

NB:

This will be problematic if both machines have overlapping feed REQUESTs
and are running at the same time.

re:

> 199.212.17.131,
> can be used as unidata1 will have either those two IPs when going to Internet.

Should we take this to indicate that reverse DNS will not be setup for
these machines?  If yes, what we have to do on our side (create a fictitious
mapping of IP to name in our /etc/hosts files) is brittle since the mapping
will fail if the IP address(es) changes.  Because of this brittleness, we would
_much_ rather that a site setup DNS for their LDM machines.

Cheers,

Tom
