Paul,

re: Please look at:
    DSSERVE LIST NEXRCOMP

>Everthing looks alright.

Could you send me the output of the DSSERVE command and the output of:

DATALOC LIST NEXRCOMP

re: see what 'ls -alt value_you_set_dirfile_to' gives you for a list

This looks good, although I would have assumed that if you used the
'value_you_set_dirfile_to' as the 'ls' object, that your list would
have been had more than one entry especially given your comment:

>I have files that are 14 MB big in the N0R directory.

OK.

>I says Satellite Sensor derived still...
>Still wondering

Something is (obviously) just not quite right in your NEXRCOMP dataset setup.
I say this because I can point at your machine (presumably weather.cod.edu)
for the RTPTSRC dataset and see that it is populated:

DATALOC ADD RTPTSRC WEATHER.COD.EDU

<LOCAL-DATA> indicates that data will be accessed from the local data directory.
DATALOC -- done

The same pointing and interrogation for NEXRCOMP shows nothing:

DATALOC ADD NEXRCOMP WEATHER.COD.EDU

Group Name                    Server IP Address
--------------------         ----------------------------------------
NEXRCOMP                     WEATHER.COD.EDU

<LOCAL-DATA> indicates that data will be accessed from the local data directory.
DATALOC -- done
 
DSINFO IMAGE NEXRCOMP
    No Datasets found of Type: IMAGE in Group: NEXRCOMP
DSINFO -- done

Hopefully, you sending me the full output from 'DSSERVE LIST NEXRCOMP'
will shed some light on what is going on.
