The NCEP and Uair menus only appear when the client and server share the same 
localization site.  You can check what localization RPM is installed with the 
command "rpm -qa | grep awips2-localization".  Changing localization on the 
server is not a trivial task, for now, and involves manually editing a large 
number of files, or requires building a new RPM. 

ls -la /awips2/edex/data/utility/cave_static/site/
ls -la /awips2/edex/data/utility/edex_static/site/

That will show you what localization sites are configured.
