Neil,

Glad to hear things went well.

>I may end up liking this new freebsd dual Xeon box a lot.

I _love_ our FreeBSD box.  It is a real performer.

I am CCing Steve Emmerson and Steve Chiswell on this.  Steve E did the
LDM-6 rewrite and Steve C did the real time statistics.  Both of these
are nice pieces of work!

You can.  Unidata McIDAS has worked on FreeBSD for some time (yet
I made a couple of code modifications that will be in the v2002b
addendum that I will release next week (hopefully).  Chiz has
GEMPAK building on FreeBSD out of the box also.

>Many thanks, -Neil

I'm grateful that you upgraded promptly.  We may need to have some
exchanges on tunings you can do in ~ldm/etc/ldmd.conf.  Could
you send me your file so I can provide commentary about tuning
that might do you good.
