The above message contained the following:

The above indicates that you don't have permission to install the
netcdf-perl module in the perl installation directory.  You can verify
this by via the following command:

    ls -l /ws/soft/perl/lib/site_perl/5.005/sun4-solaris

You probably need to become "root" or the user who originally installed
the perl package in order to successfully execute the "make install"
command.
