msccmatch at noao 950 N Cherry itself

Frank and Mike,
I'm using Abi Saha's console MAC computer to run msccmatch (and other things)
on several nights of Mosaic2 data. I'm running into a couple of related problems.
First, in mscgetcatalog, using the default NOAO:USNO-A2, there are no
stored coordinates south of some declination. So 47 Tuc and NGC 362
come up empty because they are too far south. I used to solve this problem
by using CADC: USNO-A2 but all ra/dec combinations come up empty.
I tried aclist * verbose- and saw choice of usnob1@noao and
usno2@cadc, but that format seems to give me nothing.

I'd really like to use USNO-B catalog, but i'll settle for USNO-A2.
So again, this is within NOAO's computer system at 950 N Cherry.
Abi's computer is named tsex.tuc.noao.edu

Any thoughts on what's going on?

Hi Ed,

I have made some updates to mscred which include support for usnob1@noao in mscgetcat/msccmatch/etc. In fact the new release has this as the default. But because of the ways servers might be setup at 950 N Cherry I would like to get a login on the machine you mention. Please send something login info via private email.

Thanks,
Frank
