Hi Christian,

Well, I am _finally_ over several very busy weeks of travel/work,
so I am ready to tackle the McIDAS-XCD problem on your machine.

OK, here is the content of the keyfile.pub created by me on the
machine zasu.unidata.ucar.edu:

 xxx

Sounds good.

OK.  I will jump on your machine as soon as I get confirmation from
you that I should have access.

Once again, I apologize for how long it has taken me to get to this.
