This kind of warning in the ~ldm/etc/ldmd.log file indicates that it is taking a long time to process data out of the LDM queue. This can occur on heavily loaded systems where there is alot of I/O, or on systems where there is some problem writing to disk. It sounds like you might have the latter problem: slow writes to disk. What does top, vmstat, or iostat say about disk I/O? > Also the folks at Brazil's Navy (DHN) complained that they're not receiving > data from us.

Correct. The possible reasons for the connection being refused are: - allows do not include the machine making the request - datastream being requested is not allowed for the downstream (a refusal for one datastream does NOT imply refusal for all datastreams, however) - a firewall is preventing the request by the downstream from reaching the upstream > By the way, I'll be presenting a paper about the IDD-Brazil at "The 8th > International Conference on Southern Hemisphere Meteorology and Oceanography" > this month (April 28th), as I've said before.
