Hi Eric, Recap: after logging in, we determined that the problem was that the runtime links were not created in ~ldm. I created them as follows: <as 'ldm'> cd ~ldm ln -s ldm-6.4.5 runtime ln -s runtime/* . After making this change, I was able to create your queue with no problems: ldmadmin clean ldmadmin mkqueue -f A quick review of your ~ldm/etc/ldmd.conf file showed that you were requesting most data from papagayo.unl.edu. I used the LDM 'notifyme' facility to contact papagayo.unl.edu to see if it was willing to feed data; it is not: -bash-3.1$ notifyme -vxl- -f ANY -h papagayo.unl.edu Jul 07 16:05:44 notifyme[23175] NOTE: Starting Up: papagayo.unl.edu: 20060707160544.966 TS_ENDT {{ANY, ".*"}} Jul 07 16:05:44 notifyme[23175] NOTE: LDM-5 desired product-class: 20060707160544.966 TS_ENDT {{ANY, ".*"}} Jul 07 16:05:44 notifyme[23175] INFO: Resolving papagayo.unl.edu to 129.93.52.150 took 0.001205 seconds Jul 07 16:05:45 notifyme[23175] ERROR: NOTIFYME(papagayo.unl.edu): 7: Access denied by remote server Jul 07 16:05:47 notifyme[23175] NOTE: Interrupt Jul 07 16:05:47 notifyme[23175] NOTE: exiting In order to test data ingest, I pointed at the toplevel relay that we maintain, idd.unidata.ucar.edu: -bash-3.1$ notifyme -vxl- -f ANY -h idd.unidata.ucar.edu Jul 07 16:06:47 notifyme[23901] NOTE: Starting Up: idd.unidata.ucar.edu: 20060707160647.216 TS_ENDT {{ANY, ".*"}} Jul 07 16:06:47 notifyme[23901] NOTE: LDM-5 desired product-class: 20060707160647.216 TS_ENDT {{ANY, ".*"}} Jul 07 16:06:47 notifyme[23901] INFO: Resolving idd.unidata.ucar.edu to 128.117.140.3 took 0.001626 seconds Jul 07 16:06:47 DEBUG: NOTIFYME(idd.unidata.ucar.edu) returns RECLASS Jul 07 16:06:47 notifyme[23901] NOTE: NOTIFYME(idd.unidata.ucar.edu): reclass: 20060707160647.216 TS_ENDT {{EXP|NXRDSRC|NEXRAD2|NNEXRAD|NPORT|NIMAGE|GPS|FAA604|DIFAX|NMC|FSL5|FSL4|FSL3|FSL2|UNIDATA|SPARE|0x80000000, ".*"}} Jul 07 16:06:47 DEBUG: NOTIFYME(idd.unidata.ucar.edu) returns OK Jul 07 16:06:47 notifyme[23901] NOTE: NOTIFYME(idd.unidata.ucar.edu): OK Jul 07 16:06:48 notifyme[23901] INFO: a87956cbf6f2eab28473b59bbc33d685 6924 20060707160647.379 NNEXRAD 21791872 SDUS53 KMQT 071603 /pN0VMQT Jul 07 16:06:48 notifyme[23901] INFO: 756d7bef86b1a149d5a35f550675ba56 7474 20060707160647.382 NNEXRAD 21791873 SDUS25 KABQ 071604 /pN1SFDX Jul 07 16:06:48 notifyme[23901] INFO: ee00f0afd32e7c5f4564e64e3479a041 2422 20060707160647.386 NNEXRAD 21791874 SDUS33 KBIS 071604 /pN3RMBX So, your machine can receive data with no problems as long as the upstream(s) has(have) allow lines for your machine. I see you are trying to request data from two different upstream hosts: NLDN - striker2.atmos.albany.edu other feeds - papagayo.unl.edu You need to send an email to the LDM administrators at these sites requesting that they update their allow lines for your machine: papagayo.unl.edu: Clint Rowe <address@hidden. address@hidden David Knight <address@hidden> Support <address@hidden> These folks will undoubtedly want the name of your new machine, so if you have not yet set up name service (forward and reverse) you should do so before contacting them. Please let us know if you run into any more snags.
