It could be a `.htaccess' file in that directory that prevents outside
access.  Another possibility, hinted at by the use of the ".shtml" extension
instead of ".html", is that server-side includes are used in the document
and someone there has decided that documents that use server-side includes
will not be accessible from outside.  In any case, I've just left the link
in our Web page but verified that I still get the error.  Have your
webmaster let me know if you want me to test it again.

Thanks.  I've edited this a little more for consistency with the other
entries in

    http://www.unidata.ucar.edu/packages/netcdf/utilities.html#CRDtools

and removed the duplicate link to the NCAR graphics document.  

If you have additions or changes, just let me know.
