[McIDAS #KTX-368325]: IDV, LDM and ADDE

Hi Mark,

re:

ADDE is part of McIDAS, so the instructions for setting up ADDE serving
of data is in the McIDAS documentation.

re:

This is exactly what we are doing on server machines we operate (e.g.,
adde.ucar.edu, adde.cise-nsf.gov, unidata2.ssec.wisc.edu, etc.).

re:
> Examples for pqact.conf entries would be very helpful.

These are included in the Unidata McIDAS-X/-XCD distribution.

re:

You will need to install McIDAS to get things working.  I can
help you with this if you like.  Please let me know if you
are interested.

Cheers,

Tom
