I'm afraid I don't understand what you're saying. You indicated earlier that
you didn't have any REQUEST entries in your LDM configuration-file. Later,
your LDM log file indicated that a downstream LDM on your system, which was
started by a REQUEST entry, couldn't connect to the LDM on host
"ldm.madis.ncep.noaa.gov". Now you're saying your backup site (what backup
site?) doesn't request from "madis" (not ldm.madis...) and you seem to be
saying that you shouldn't have any REQUEST entries in your LDM configuration-
file.

I'm confused. Would you please explain.

Does your LDM configuration-file have the necessary EXEC entries for the
noaaportIngester(1) program? You can read more about that at
<http://www.unidata.ucar.edu/software/ldm/ldm-current/basics/noaaport.html>.

That should allow you to REQUEST data from an upstream LDM providing that
LDM has a necessary ALLOW entry in its configuration-file. Executing the
previously-mentioned notifyme(1) command will tell you if it does.
