20011130: realtime FTPs to motherlode.ucar.edu

Hi,

Someone on mkc-65-26-24-74.kc.rr.com setup a product-by-product,
cron-initiated FTP of all GEMPAK-decoded products from motherlode.ucar.edu.
FTP access to motherlode-hosted data files was never intended to serve
as a realtime feed of data.  Our intention has always been to allow
users to FTP data that they missed through "normal" feed mechanisms
(IDD, direct NOAAPORT ingest, etc.).

Your automated FTPs have grown to be problem due to the sheer volume of
log messages that they generate.  If you feel that you should be
allowed to continue obtaining data from motherlode, please let us know by
sending us an email that describes who you are and what your use of the
data is.  If we don't hear from you by midday on Monday, December 3, we
will shut off FTP access for your machine.
