Hi Hongming,

No, this message is not normal and could be keeping you from receiving
data.  You must have a special line in your ldmd.conf file that looks
like this:


# Giving permission to your own machine and Unidata
allow   ANY
   
^((localhost|loopback)|(127\.0\.0\.1\.?$)|([a-z].*\.unidata\.ucar\.edu\.?$))

Make sure that this line is in your ldmd.conf, and please let me know if
this fixes your problem.
