The above message contained the following:

> Attached are two files you requested.  Both are from the linux ldm server.

The LDM logfile on Alaska has many entries like the following:

    Oct 02 12:16:14 alaska ldm-12[1337]: Desired product class: 
20031002121035.840 TS_ENDT {{IDS,  "^.*"}} 
    Oct 02 12:16:14 alaska ldm-12[1337]: ERROR: requester6.c:459; 
ldm_clnt.c:286: nullproc_6 failure to ldm-12.crh.noaa.gov; ldm_clnt.c:142: RPC: 
Unable to receive;
     errno = Connection reset by peer Oct 02 12:16:14 alaska ldm-12[1337]: 
Sleeping 30 seconds before retrying... 

This means that the LDM on Alaska (presumably the Linux system) was able
to connect to host "ldm-12", but that that host closed the connection.
The reason for the disconnection might be in the LDM logfile on host
"ldm-12".

The LDM logfile on Alaska also has entries like the following:

    Oct 02 12:16:13 alaska rpc.ldmd[1329]: Starting Up (version: 6.0.14; built: 
Aug 15 2003 16:11:59) 
    Oct 02 12:17:53 alaska rpc.ldmd[1329]: RPC buffer sizes for ls1-msr: 
send=16384; recv=87380 
    Oct 02 12:17:53 alaska rpc.ldmd[1329]: Denying connection from ls1-msr 
    ...

This means that the LDM on host "ls1-msr" tried to connected to the
top-level LDM on Alaska but the connection was refused by Alaska's LDM
-- undoubtably because there is no ALLOW line for host "ls1-msr" in the
LDM configuration-file (etc/ldmd.conf) on Alaska.

I'll see what I can do.
