[McIDAS #HNQ-544745]: Missing SYSKEY.DAT

Hi Angel,

I would guess that somebody added the 'GU REST GRAPHIC(S)' lines to the
BATCH files somewhere along the way and simply made a typo...

OK.

Very good.

If I was you, I would delete the entry from ~ldm/etc/scour.conf so that
somebody won't uncomment it again in the future.

Very good.

Hmm... there were several threads about Nexrad Level III data at the end
of February:

- one user noted that his receipt of data seemed to be bursty (no NNEXRAD
  data would come in just before the top of the hour and then he would
  get flooded by data at about 5 past the hour)

  This issue was not related to the LDM/IDD; it was likely due to some
  broadcast issues in NOAAPort.

- the other thing that was reported was a "flapping" between upstream
  NNEXRAD feed sites

  LDM-6.6.5 will switch between upstream providers of exactly the same
  data (i.e., the ~ldm/etc/ldmd.conf request lines must be identical)
  based on which upstream is providing the data the fastest.  This may
  look like a problem to the user when s/he sees the log messages that
  are written into ~ldm/logs/ldmd.log, but it is not a problem.

Were either of these two threads what you had in mind?

> Thanks again,

No worries.

Cheers,
