Jimmy,

Dave Fulker forwarded the following note from you to support:

We forwarded this request to Jeff Weber.  He should be getting back
to you (probably already has gotten back to you) on IDD access.

>Also I want to update the distribution of Mcidas to 7.7
>but I went to ftp://ftp.unidata.ucar.edu and there is not nothing of
>the packages that I am searching for, I still have the username and
>the password that Dr. Tom Yoksas got to me the last year but is
>useless in this moment.

The user name and password for the McIDAS FTP account has not changed
in a year, so you may simply have the wrong one.  The correct information
is:

machine: ftp.unidata.ucar.edu
user: umcidas
pass: XXXXXX

Unidata McIDAS-X 7.7 is not yet available for download, but it should be
in the next few days.  I see that you are subscribed to the Unidata
mcidas-x email list under with the following address:

address@hidden

If this is correct, you will receive email announcing the availability of
Unidata McIDAS-X 7.7 by next week.

If this address is not valid, please visit:

http://www.unidata.ucar.edu/mailinglist/mailing-list-form.html

and unsubscribe the previous, incorrect email address and resubscribe
to mcidas-x with your current, correct one.

>Dr. Fulker, I will apreciate very much all the help that you can
>provide  me with this two things for this time.
>
>Thank you in advance and I hope you can visit us again in the short
>time  here at the University of Costa Rica.
>
>Sincerely, JImmy
