Hi, re: > No hard coding of that address within the ldmd.conf. The only way to hardwire someting in the LDM configuration file, ~ldm/etc/ldmd.conf, is to do the REQUEST(s) by IP address instead of by name. I was asking if someone had hardwired an IP <-> name association in /etc/hosts. re: > Where does ldmping look for it's resolution? I believe that it does a 'gethostbyip' call, and that should use the DNS that is setup. Quick test: - what is the result of: <as 'ldm'> notifyme -vl- -f NEXRAD3 -h 128.117.130.3 If this works, you could change your LDM configuration file REQUEST to be by IP address while the DNS issue is sorted out there.
