I didn't know there was a .gz distribution of the netCDF pacakge. I couldn't find it on our FTP server. Would you please do the following 1. Go to the top-level source directory of the netCDF distribution 2. Send the contents of file VERSION to me. 3. Execute the command `make clean'. Don't worry if it fails. 4. Ensure that the file `config.cache' doesn't exist. 5. Execute the command `./configure'. Trap the output and send it to me. 6. Send the contents of the file `config.log' to me. 7. Execute the command `make'. Trap the output and send it to me. -------- Steve Emmerson <address@hidden>
