I reviewed this thread in our netCDF support-email archive and something doesn't make sense. The original problem was that the CAM package required upper-case symbols (e.g., "_NF_CLOSE_") but that the Fortran-callable symbols in the netCDF library were lower-case (e.g., "_nf_close_"). The "cfortran.h" file, however, does generate upper-case symbols if the C macro "AbsoftProFortran" is defined. Could it be that the C macro "AbsoftProFortran" wasn't defined in the CPPFLAGS environment variable when the configure(1) script was originally executed? Regards, Steve Emmerson
