[IDD #VVB-942572]: U. Georgia IDD feed

Hi Tom,

Long time no hear!

re:

Very good.

Welcome back!

Yes.  Can you verify that your contact information is still:

re:

Very good.

We maintain two top-level IDD relay clusters here in UCAR:

idd.unidata.ucar.edu
iddb.unidata.ucar.edu

You can feed from either/both of them.

re:
> REQUEST LIGHTNING ".*"    idd.unidata.ucar.edu # USPLN

All LIGHTNING feeds are point-to-point; nobody, including us,
is allowed to relay any of the feeds (which are NLDN and USPLN).
Distribution of the GOES-R lightning data, on the other hand, is
not restricted.

re:
> REQUEST LIGHTNING ".*"    striker.atmos.albany.edu # NLDN

This entry should be OK/valid as long as UAlbany has ALLOWed
you to REQUEST the feed.

I suggest commenting out the REQUEST for the EXP feed from 
lead.unidata.ucar.edu.
'lead' is not designed to be a relay for any but HRRR model output from NOAA/GSD
(under its alternate name of hrrr.unidata.ucar.edu), and that role as a HRRR
relay will be changed in the not too distant future.

Some of these feed REQUESTs could be combined IF your network
bandwidth is sufficient (which I assume that it is).  We can
address this after you get your LDM working again.

Note:

Because there is forward and reverse DNS for your machine, you should
be able to REQUEST the feed(s) you want from either/both of the top
level IDD relay clusters that we maintain.  To test to see if this
is, in fact, the case, please run:

<as 'ldm'>
notifyme -vl- -f ANY -h idd.unidata.ucar.edu

and/or 

notifyme -vl- -f ANY -h iddb.unidata.ucar.edu

Success will be indicated by one of the 'notifyme' output lines looking
like:

20190227T173145.699816Z            notifyme[299584]        
ldm5_clnt.c:forn_signon() NOTE  NOTIFYME(idd.unidata.ucar.edu): OK



Cheers,

Tom
