Great!  Here's what I'm seeing so far:

traceroute ldm.meteo.psu.edu:

Is the 10th hop due to a firewall?

These times look good.  If you'd like to see the current snapshot of the
complete netcheck log, ftp to pub/anne and get netcheck.log.  I could
set something up to keep that current - let me know if you'd like me to
do that.

So, this tells us that small packets, at least, are getting through
well. Currently, I have no clue as to why your other feeds are timely
but our feed is not.  This afternoon I will query my coworkers for
ideas. 

Just to confirm, you're seeing products *arriving* late, as opposed to
being filed late, is that correct?  Did you determine this via 'ldmadmin
watch'? 

I'll keep netcheck running as long as you and your system administrator
want to keep it open.  Let me know.  I'll be gone for 1.5 hours, leaving
in about 1/2 hour, FYI.   You can close the ports back up again whenever
you like.
