David, We managed to build a netCDF implementation that appears to work on your platform. You'll find it installed in ~emmerson/{bin,include,lib,man}. It passes all the C tests. Unfortunately, the FORTRAN interface doesn't work -- so don't use it. We're investigating the problem. There's another fellow who's having problems with the netCDF package under IRIX64. His name is Larry Rosen <address@hidden>. Would you do me a favor and create a compressed tar file of the binary distribution (~emmerson/{bin,include,lib,man} for him and put it somewhere where he can get it. I'll tell him to get in touch with you. Thanks. -------- Steve Emmerson <address@hidden>
