Daniel,

If you are trying to access GEMPAK which provides for grib decoding
as well as all the analysis and display tools, then go to the
GEMPAK web mpage:
http://www.unidata.ucar.edu/packages/gempak/
Then, click on the link to download software.
After registering your site, you will be able to download the distribution.

We also have available in the anonymous ftp area under
pub/decoders/decoders.tar.Z
a package which will decode grib data to netcdf format called gribtonc.
This is not a full featured display package, just a set of decoders to
NetCDF format.
