Hi Mark, re: > We will be upgrading out LDM server over the winter break and was > wondering about setting up and ADDE server for IDV use. Currently our > IDV use in the classroom is very limited due to the slowness of pulling > data over the internet. Since we have a NOAAport system feeding our LDM > server I was wondering if there was any documentation on setting up an > ADDE server for this purpose. ADDE is part of McIDAS, so the instructions for setting up ADDE serving of data is in the McIDAS documentation. re: > I was unable to find any clear information on this in my searches. > We would like to make as much data available as possible from our > NOAAport feed so we can avoid remote servers for data retrieval. 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: > I was hoping to > use a standalone ADDE server since we do not use McIdas. 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.
