Chris,

Here's a link to allow and request configurations for the upstream and
downstream machines:

http://www.unidata.ucar.edu/packages/ldm/smg/ldmconfig.fm.html#HDR2

The configurations are in the etc/ldmd.conf file. 

Here's an example configuration, of course the feeds/sites will have to be
changed for your configurations.

# Request for data
#
request NEXRAD ".*" imogene.unidata.ucar.edu
#####

# Begin Access control

##
# ALLOW: Who we are willing to feed
allow   ANY
    ^((localhost|loopback)|(127\.0\.0\.1\.?$))
allow   ANY     [a-z].*\.unidata\.ucar\.edu\.?$

#
allow WMO picante.comet.ucar.edu


Robb...
