Hi Robert,

Sorry I couldn't get to this sooner.  I just got back from 6 days of
mountain biking and hiking in celebration of my 53rd birthday :-)

>Can you look at this box again, newpsn.nsbf.nasa.gov?

I tried to ssh and do a traceroute to this machine, but I didn't get
anywhere.:

% traceroute newpsn.nsbf.nasa.gov

source should be 128.117.140.45

OK, sounds like the decoder for surface data.  Is there a file named
decodertypes.core in the ~mcidas/workdata directory?  I have made the
mistake of deleting *.core in ~mcidas/workdata and shot myself in the
foot as far as data decoding is concerned.

I will check things out as soon as I can get to the machine.  Right
now, it looks as if the box is behind a firewall that is blocking
our access.
