Elen,

OK, good.

I am in contact with John to get the LDM running.  The real question is
what you want done.  I am sorry that I just don't have the time to
continue to look at your LDM and McIDAS-X setups on a regular basis.
Someone there needs to start assuming these duties.

The procedure is well documented on the McIDAS web pages.  I suggest that
he reads through things before asking for help:

>I can show him the steps you showed me to prepare the account.

Very good.

OK, so the access is by anonymous FTP.  I thought so in the first place, but
your comment about a user name and password confused me.
