Here is another thing to try:

<as 'root'>
-- edit /etc/sysctl.conf and make sure that the following line is
   commented out:

# Controls source route verification
#net.ipv4.conf.default.rp_filter = 1

-- run 'sysctl -p'

<as 'ldm'>
ldmadmin watch

OK.  Sorry I misinterpreted your previous comment.

OK.  Did you make sure that the directory to which XCD data monitors/decoders
will write is writable by 'mcidas' and 'ldm'?

re:

No, that is correct.

re:
> I ran the command in /home/mcidas/data and it didn't do anything:

If your McIDAS environment is setup correctly, XCD.BAT would have been
found in ~mcidas/data and 'batch.k XCD.BAT' would have worked.

re:
> [mcidas@npxcd data]$ batch.k XCD.BAT
> String not found: MCDATA
> batch.k: BATCH job abandon /home/mcidas/data/XCD.BAT
> batch.k: BATCH done /home/mcidas/data/XCD.BAT

The McIDAS string 'MCDATA' should have been set when you ran 'mcxconfig'.
To test this, do the following:

<login as 'mcidas'>

cd $MCDATA
tl.k

Is MCDATA in the listing from the TL (tl.k) command?

re:

If you continue to have problems it may be better to talk by phone.

Cheers,

Tom
