An upstream LDM-5 process on Striker2 was started in response to a
NOTIFYME request from Anvil. The start-time for the data is 2004-05-12
20:28:23.588 UTC, which is about FIVE HOURS IN THE FUTURE!
Is there something wrong with the clock on Anvil?
NOTE: The notifyme(1) program uses LDM-5 protocols rather than LDM-6
protocols.

An upstream LDM-6 process on Striker2 was started in response to a
FEEDME request on Anvil. The start-time for the data is 2004-05-12

The upstream LDM-6 process on Striker2 was unable to send a do-nothing
NULLPROC message to its downstream LDM-6 counterpart on Anvil. The
connection was closed and the upstream LDM-6 process on Striker2
terminated.
Questions:
1. Are the times in Striker's logfile correct? They should be
UTC.
2. Is there something wrong with the clock on Anvil?
