Paul, 

The short answer is yes. Scour is usually run from a crontab entry. There is a 
good example at http://www.unidata.ucar.edu/cgi-bin/man-cgi?scour+1

or look on your LDM version's home page (find it at 
http://www.unidata.ucar.edu/software/ldm/) look at the "LDM man(1) pages". Your 
crontab entry can have scour calls like:

0 0 * * * scour -v -l ~ldm/etc/scour.conf 
0 1 * * * ~ldm/bin/scour -v -l ~ldm/etc/scour_other.conf

As long as you give the scour command the name of the configuration file that 
exists (i.e. scour.conf or scour_other.conf or crazy.conf). I hope that answers 
your question.

Hey all and Happy Thanksgiving

Is there a way to use ldmadmin scour with a different configuration file 
other than scour.conf? According to thie scour.conf info it says "A scour 
configuration-file (typically scour.conf)..." which tells me there 
*should* be a way to use a different configuration file. I just don't know 
hot to do that.


Thanks for you help

Paul
