I'm not sure which web page you're referring to, but if it's this one: http://www.unidata.ucar.edu/software/netcdf/docs/other-builds.html#absoft you need to be using a beta release of 3.6.1, for example: ftp://ftp.unidata.ucar.edu/pub/netcdf/netcdf-beta.tar.Z Unfortunately I can't test this right now, as I don't have the Absoft compiler installed on my Mac platform. Previously I tested it with a trial copy, but it has expired (and I think that was pre-Tiger). If using the beta release above doesn't help, please let us know the details and we'll see if we can figure it out. --Russ
