[IDD #SET-184160]: GOES-W AREA Files

Hmm... the current web page that lists all of the products in the 
Unidata-Wisconsin datastream
does not show the old GOES-West/15 image sectors nor the old, but still existing
GOES-16/remapped 13 sectors.  Here is the URL for the page I am referring to:

https://www.unidata.ucar.edu/data/uniwisc.html

If you are seeing renditions of the old sectors, then it should be the case that
your browser view needs to be forcibly refreshed (e.g., shift-refresh) or
you are looking at the old page:

https://www.unidata.ucar.edu/data/uniwisc_old.html

Hmm, that is strange for two reason:

- I don't know how an email client would change a word unless it was somehow
  doing an auto correct

- I asked for the pattern-action file to be sent so that I would be sure
  of the entries being used/tried, and so I could make sure that the
  actions included are properly formatted

One of the key guarantees with the LDM is that its configuration files are
backwardly compatible.

Question:

- what version of the LDM is running on the machine you are working on?

  The easiest way to get this and other information is to do the following:

  <as 'ldm'>
  ldmadmin config

Thanks!

Oops!

If you like, I could login to your machine as 'ldm' and check to make sure that
things are setup correctly.  Logging in would require getting the login 
credentials
and the machine's/department's/university's firewall(s) would have to allow the
connection attempt.  If you would like me to login and poke around, please email
me (address@hidden) the password for the 'ldm' account in an email ** that make
NO mention of the account for which it is valid, or of the machine on which the
account lives **.

Cheers,

Tom
