Re: "pbuf_flush: time elapsed" problem

Justin,

I figured it was something like that.

I need to think a bit.  I'll get back to you as soon as I can.

Regards,

Actually I was wrong in my earlier email, we are talking about the 
downstream ldm that is placing NEXRAD2 into our product queue.  The 
process that is getting data from the upstream LDM server is what is 
hanging.

Here when I refer to the "upstream ldm" I should have been saying 
"downstream ldm", I was confused on the terminology of what processes 
are considered upstream or downstream.  Since we do not send products 
to any other machine through LDM I considered all processes to be 
upstream since that is where they are receiving data from.  I didn't 
consider the processes actually putting products into the queue on our 
machine to be downstream.  But they actually are.

Hopefully this is clear...

Justin
