Jackie, I got the files OK. The only thing I suggest is that you change the entry allow ANY rsaintrf.midds.jsc.nasa.gov in the LDM configuration-file on host ftpsvr.er-rsaiia-unc.int to allow ANY rsaintrf\.midds\.jsc\.nasa\.gov allow ANY rsaserv\.midds\.jsc\.nasa\.gov because the "hostname" is actually a pattern (so the periods should be escaped) and the given host appears to have two names (I'm assuming that the domainname is the same). Please send me the outputs from the commands as soon as you're able. Regards, Steve Emmerson
