URLs AAA and BBB are believed to be, currently, for the websites of
the U.S. Navy Numerical Weather Prediction Unit(FNMOC) and for the
U.S. Military Joint Typhoon Warning Center (JTWC) in the western
Pacific, respectively.
Both of these facilities have had splendid websites at which the
amateur as well as the professional could obtain authentic,
up-to-date, information and be educated in the process. I am a MSNTV
subscriber (formerly WebTV) and when I try to access these sites, I
get the following popup message:
"Your receiver could not establish
secure communications with the
requested website"
This is the first time this has happened in the over five years I've
been on the Interrrnet.
Sco'ish, are we? =)

==================================
The "old" URL for the JTWC is:
http://www.npmoc.navy.mil/jtwc.html
And according to the National Hurricane
Center website it is still this URL(as of Tuesday afternoon, Sept 30).
However,
when I try to access this website with this URL. I get the following
popup message:
"The item chosen cotains a kind of
information that can't be used."
another "over 5-year first".
I can't locate the "old" URL for the FNMOC so I don't know what would
happen there.
Does anyone in this Group know what is going on with these websites
and,also,
how could they be accessed particularily by a MSNTV subscriber?
Thank you so much for your help.
Not too clued in on WebTV/MSNTV here, but wondering if those browsers
don't support secure servers (https
properly?
Comcast and using Mozilla 1.4 here. Got into both, but looks like they
are moving their sites to secure (https
servers. Mozilla complained
about expired certificates, but when has the the government ever steered
me wrong? ;^)
The URLs that worked for me a
AAA
https://www.fnmoc.navy.mil/PUBLIC/WXMAP/index.html
BBB
https://metoc.npmoc.navy.mil//jtwc.html (Looks like you lost an 'l' on
your link above)
If nothing else works, perhaps it's time to treat yourself to a 'real'
computer?
