pnga2area will look for these files in /home/mcidas/data by default.
If they exist someplace else, pnga2area has to be told where to look.
You do this by using the '-a' and '-b' flags on the pnga2area invocation
line in pqact.conf.

As an example, if your pqact.conf entry for pnga2area was:

MCIDAS  ^pnga2area Q. (..) (.*) (.*) (.*) (.*) (........) (....)
        PIPE    -close
        pnga2area -d /var/data/mcidas -r \1,\2

it should be modified to be:

MCIDAS  ^pnga2area Q. (..) (.*) (.*) (.*) (.*) (........) (....)
        PIPE    -close
        pnga2area
        -a /home/mcidas/solaris/data/SATANNOT
        -b /home/mcidas/solaris/data/SATBAND
        -d /var/data/mcidas -r \1,\2

The other thing you could do is copy SATANNOT and SATBAND to ~ldm/etc
and set the '-a' and '-b' flags to point at that directory.

After making any changes to pqact.conf, you should:

ldmadmin pqactcheck
ldmadmin pqactHUP
