Hsie,

>I already set up all the GINI ADDE server products.

I saw that they were working just before I headed off to the AMS show
in Albuquerque, NM.

I suspect that you made a typo in RESOLV.SRV when you added the GINI
entries.  This assumes, of course, that you edited RESOLV.SRV directly
to add the GINI entries.  The most common mistake made when editing
RESOLV.SRV directly is the omission of a comma at the end of one or
more lines.

If you edited RESOLV.SRV directly (RESOLV.SRV will be found in
~mcidas/workdata), then you should reedit the file and look for a
line _before_ the RTNEXRAD entries that looks incorrect.  Since these
lines are typically very long, you will need to make your xterm as wide
as it can go to do the edit (for example, 160 columns if you use 'vi').

OK, I just wanted to make sure that you had setup scouring of the GINI
images.

If you can't find the problem in RESOLV.SRV, I am willing to take a look
if you give me the login to the machine running the ADDE remote server.
