[LDM #SER-849220]: Request for adding new IPs to allowed LDM connection

Hi,

re:

OK.  I don't think that cori.met is reporting real-time stats back to us -
it is not showing up in the list of sites/machines in our Statistics by
Host page:

https://rtstats.unidata.ucar.edu/cgi-bin/rtstats/siteindex

re:

Excellent!

OK.

The fact that the 'notifyme' REQUEST to idd.unidata.ucar.edu did not
work suggests that reverse DNS does not exist for your machine, but
an 'nslookup' shows that it does:

~: nslookup nids.geos.tamu.edu
Server:         208.67.222.222
Address:        208.67.222.222#53

Non-authoritative answer:
Name:   nids.geos.tamu.edu
Address: 128.194.19.26

~: nslookup 128.194.19.26
Server:         208.67.222.222
Address:        208.67.222.222#53

Non-authoritative answer:
26.19.194.128.in-addr.arpa      name = nids.geos.tamu.edu.

Authoritative answers can be found from:

If you have 'telnet' installed, you can test to see if you
can get to idd.unidata.ucar.edu as follows:

<on nids.geos.tamu.edu>
telnet idd.unidata.ucar.edu 388

A successful connection will show the following output:

Trying 128.117.135.3...
Connected to idd.unidata.ucar.edu.
Escape character is '^]'.

An output like this would show that there is no firewall blocking
outbound access to port 388 on your machine, in your department,
in your institution.  If it does not connect, it shows that something
(e.g., firewall rule) is blocking outbound access to a remote machine
on port 388).

re:
> Would you, please, check if you see anything on your end like me reporting
> the wrong hostname, or something else obviously wrong.

Another way to test the ability of the LDM on nids.geos.tamu.edu is for
you to run the same kind of 'notifyme' invocation while I am monitoring
LDM log files on the machine trying to be contacted.  This test would need
to be coordinated so that I am watching while you are trying the following
'notifyme':

<as ldm on nids.geos.tamu.edu>
notifyme -vl- -f ANY -h node3.unidata.ucar.edu

Please let me know when you have time to run this test, and I will watch
the LDM log file on node3.unidata.ucar.edu.

Cheers,

Tom
