Alright, I'm stumped.  We use this same config on four other servers, and
tonight, using LDM 6.11.6 and Debian 6, it's failing.

>From pqact.conf:

> NEXRAD2 ^L2-BZIP2/(....)/([0-9]{8})([0-9]{4})[0-9]{2}/([0-9]{1,4}).*/[SI]
>         FILE    data/nexrad2/\1/\1_\2-\3.part
> (snip)


>From ldmd.conf:

> REQUEST NEXRAD2 ".*"    bigbird.tamu.edu
> REQUEST NEXRAD2 ".*"    idd.tamu.edu


Here is the error we get when trying to use "ldmadmin start":

We have another LDM 6.11.6 server on Debian 7 with these *exact* settings,
and it has no errors and correctly fetches the L2 data.  What on earth am I
missing...NEXRAD2 isn't a valid feed type all of a sudden?

Disclaimer: I've been at this for 3 hours...so I'm probably overlooking
something stupid.
