The THREDDS servlets use the Tomcat servlet engine, which will respond 
to both HTTP 1.0 or 1.1
The client i believe is the one that indicates if it wants 1.0 or 1,1 
when it makes its request. Most browserss and the Java library should 
use 1.1 im pretty sure.
If you are using the get byte range request, that is only in HTTP 1.1, 
so any client using 1.0 i would expect to not work.
An "HTTP server for netCDF files" sounds cool, id like to hear more 
about it and bang on it when its ready.
