Several possibilities come to mind: - you are accessing the datasets in McIDAS as LOCAL-DATA To test this, run the following: <as 'mcidas'> cd $MCDATA dataloc.k LIST If these all come back as LOCAL-DATA, then try pointing your McIDAS session at your ADDE remote server. For instance: <as 'mcidas'> cd $MCDATA dataloc.k ADD NEXRCOMP fully_qualified_name_of_your_ADDE_server dsinfo.k IMAGE NEXRCOMP Does this work? - your ADDE remote server is not setup/setup correctly Please send me the name of the machine hosting your ADDE remote server and I will run tests to it using my McIDAS installations at Unidata and at home. - your firewall is preventing port 112 traffic from the machine running IDV I am betting that the problem is somewhere in your ADDE remote server setup.
