Ok, you don't modify the nc file, only change the ncml file in my first reply. 
The second line of that ncml file points to 
the nc file in my computer, and this is what and why you need to change it to 
point to the nc file in your computer.

If this is still confusing, please give me a call or stop by my office FL4.
