You need to set some environment variables before you run the
"configure" script, as described in the INSTALL document that comes
with netCDF or the more up-to-date INSTALL document at

  http://www.unidata.ucar.edu/staff/russ/netcdf/INSTALL

which also explains how to set environment variables.

In particular, for HP platforms, you should at least set

    CPPFLAGS="-D_HPUX_SOURCE -DNDEBUG"
    FFLAGS="-O3 -w"

before rerunning the configure script.

Also, you can send questions about netcdf to
"address@hidden" rather than the whole netcdfgroup mailing
list.
