We require that forward and reverse DNS be provided for machines
getting IDD datafeeds from us.  Forward DNS works for ldm.nohrsc2.nws.gov,
but reverse does not:

% nslookup ldm.nohrsc2.nws.gov
Server:         128.117.140.62
Address:        128.117.140.62#53

Non-authoritative answer:
Name:   ldm.nohrsc2.nws.gov
Address: 199.86.20.7

% nslookup 199.86.20.7
;; Got SERVFAIL reply from 128.117.140.62, trying next server
;; Got SERVFAIL reply from 128.117.140.62, trying next server
Server:         128.117.140.56
Address:        128.117.140.56#53

** server can't find 7.20.86.199.in-addr.arpa: SERVFAIL

As soon as forward and reverse DNS are available for ldm.nohrsc2.nws.gov (like
they are for ldm.nohrsc.nws.gov), you should be able to feed from 
idd.unidata.ucar.edu
and/or idd.cise-nsf.gov.

Question:

- have you considered setting ldm.nohrsc2.nws.gov to feed from 
ldm.nohrsc.nws.gov
  and instrument it so that if ldm.nohrsc.nws.gov fails, you would switch to
  idd.unidata.ucar.edu or idd.cise-nsf.gov?


Cheers,

Tom
