Glad to hear it.

Hmm, that doesn't sound good. Do you have a CLASSPATH environment variable set? 
Actually, the "-cp" option should take precedence. Earlier I ran it fine from 
one directory above like this:

java -cp tmp/netcdfUI-2.2.20.jar:tmp/nlog4j-1.2.25.jar ucar.nc2.NCdump

You should be able to point to any jar in the classpath, absolute or relative 
paths.
