Re: [ldm-users] ldm config examples needed

ok... so no on the .edu stuff... but are there any government sites that might have public access? 

I can read the
https://www.unidata.ucar.edu/software/ldm/ldm-current/basics/ldmd.conf.html
stuff.. but If I can't find any public sites to get data from... how can I figure out how the stuff works?
I don't want to know that the commands do.. I want to be able to receive data and see what to do with that data.
This is an educational process for me.... i am helping someone setup ldm to use for their work products at weather.net.. but I am also trying to figure how all this stuff works together.
It is my understanding / guess.. that this LDM stuff receives data ( I am interested in weather data specifically... not sure if LDM works with other stuff too or not... again.. this is all new to me ) and then other programs have to act on that data.  Just trying to get a feel from this from novice perspective.

Subject: [ldm-users] ldm config examples needed


I have the base ldmd.conf file enabled.

I found some entries like:
REQUEST    NEXRAD3 "./p(DHR|DPR|DSP|DTA|DAA|DVL|EET|HHC|N0Q|N0S|N0U|OHA|NVW|NTV|NST)." idd.unidata.ucar.edu 
REQUEST    FNEXRAD|IDS|DDPLUS|UNIWISC ".*" idd.unidata.ucar.edu
REQUEST    NGRID ".*" idd.unidata.ucar.edu
REQUEST    NOTHER "^TIP... KNES.*" idd.unidata.ucar.edu
REQUEST    HDS|NIMAGE ".*" idd.unidata.ucar.edu
that I put in my ldmd.conf file and restarted.. the logs seems to say idd.unidata.ucar.edu does not want to talk to me.
are there any public data entries I can put in for my REQUEST to see how the LDM stuff receives those? 

Just trying to understand how all of this works.
