Re: [ldm-users] ldm config examples needed

[Jack Snodgrass <jack@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

ok... so no on the .edu stuff... but are there any government sites that 
might have public access?

I can read the
https://www.unidata.ucar.edu/software/ldm/ldm-current/basics/ldmd.conf.html
stuff.. but If I can't find any public sites to get data from... how can 
I figure out how the stuff works?

I don't want to know that the commands do.. I want to be able to receive 
data and see what to do with that data.

This is an educational process for me.... i am helping someone setup ldm 
to use for their work products at weather.net.. but I am also trying to 
figure how all this stuff works together.

It is my understanding / guess.. that this LDM stuff receives data ( I 
am interested in weather data specifically... not sure if LDM works with 
other stuff too or not... again.. this is all new to me ) and then other 
programs have to act on that data.  Just trying to get a feel from this 
from novice perspective.
