Hi Gilbert,

I logged onto weather2 a couple of minutes ago and see that ADDE serving
of NOAAPORT GINI imagery was never setup.  That's why you don't get anything
when looking at LOCAL-HOST.

The procedure for setting up ADDE serving of the NOAAPORT GINI images is:

<as 'mcidas'>
cd ~mcidas/data
cp GINIADDE.BAT LOCGINI.BAT
-- edit LOCGINI.BAT and replace 'directory_file_regular_expression' with
   the directory under which the LDM is FILEing NOAAPORT GINI images.
   This is /home/data/gempak/images/sat on weather2
cd ~mcidas/workdata
batch.k LOCGINI.BAT

After running the BATCH invocation, ADDE serving of NOAAPORT GINI imagery 
is setup and accessible.


> Are you getting anything?

Evidently we did not setup weather2 as fully as weather3.

Cheers,

Tom
