I have no problems when contacting our server from an HP-UX >client. Seems to me that if the problem was one of Anthony's machine not being able to find uncompress then his compressed transfers should fail when talking to any/all servers. To test this, I suggest that Anthony try a simple test to our GINI ADDE server: setenv MCCOMPRESS (or appropriate ksh or sh syntax) <start McIDAS-X session> DATALOC ADD RTGINI ADDE.UNIDATA.UCAR.EDU DSINFO IMAGE RTGINI IMGLIST RTGINI/GE1KVIS.ALL IMGDISP RTGINI/GE1KVIS 1 STA=KHSV EU=IMAGE SF=YES REFRESH='EG;MAP X 5 COUNTY=ALL ST=AL;MAP H 1 WID=2' If the problem is on Anthony's IRIX machine, then he should see multiple failures from the actions above.
