Since papagayo.unl.edu saw your connection request for other data, there must be request lines for other feeds. The request lines are separeate from the allow lines. I just got an email from Jeff Weber of our office pointing out that a machine at Valparaiso named weather (weather.valpo.edu) _is_ getting data: Hi Bill, I see you are curently getting some data.. local/ldm/etc% !not notifyme -vl - -h weather.valpo.edu Jul 19 20:29:20 notifyme[2702]: Starting Up: weather.valpo.edu: 20020719202920.567 TS_ENDT {{ANY, ".*"}} Jul 19 20:29:20 notifyme[2702]: NOTIFYME(weather.valpo.edu): OK Jul 19 20:29:21 notifyme[2702]: 536 20020719202920.647 IDS|DDPLUS 107 FPUS43 KDTX 192028 /pCCFDTX Jul 19 20:29:21 notifyme[2702]: 1749 20020719202921.206 IDS|DDPLUS 119 SXXX90 KWAL 192002 Jul 19 20:29:24 notifyme[2702]: 83108 20020719202920.587 HDS 100 ZRUQ86 KWBE 191800 /mETA_84 Jul 19 20:29:24 notifyme[2702]: 118672 20020719202920.892 HDS 112 Now I am thoroughly confused. Exactly which machine at Valparaiso do you want to run the LDM and McIDAS-XCD? Tom
