Hi Jeff,

Wow, what a morning!

I'm afraid I'm not completely following your question.  Jeff (Weber) is
assuming that you're currently feeding from FNMOC with the Naval Post
Graduate School as your backup.  Is that accurate?  Are you getting
data?

You do not need to switch feeds in order to get the lightning data.  In
order to get that data you must have an additional upstream feed from
Albany.  You must contact David Knight, address@hidden, to
request that feed.  After he puts an 'allow' line in for your machine,
then you must put a 'request' line in your ldmd.conf, then stop and
restart the ldm.  Your request line would look something like this:

        request NLDN ".*" striker.atmos.albany.edu

Regarding logging in, we would not and could not log in unless you gave
us a login.  Were you expecting us to log in for some reason?   

Anne
