[IDD #OJU-555308]: Connection Request...

Hi Scott,

re:

I just looked through the LDM log files on idd.cise-nsf.gov and see repeated
connection (REQUEST) attempts by 198.85.226.2.  A quick check shows that
there is no forward (IP -> name) DNS for this machine:

% nslookup 198.85.226.2
Server:         127.0.0.1
Address:        127.0.0.1#53

** server can't find 2.226.85.198.in-addr.arpa.: NXDOMAIN

The connection attempts started at 10:13:40 on September 26.

I see _no_ connection attempts by any named machine in the cicsnc.org domain,
so the ALLOW that I setup previously is not being triggered.

In order force acceptance of feed REQUEST attempts from 198.85.226.2, I
have hardwired an IP <-> name correspondence in the /etc/hosts file
on idd.cise-nsf.gov.  The next time that 198.85.226.2 attempts to connect
it should be recognized by the LDM as ldm.cicsnc.org, and data should
start flowing because of the ALLOW that is in place.

re:
> Thank you very much,

Any idea why your machine would be recognized as 198.85.226.2?

Cheers,

Tom
