Installing NCO involves more than just running the "configure" script.  After 
executing "configure", you also have to run "make install".  You can specify 
where the executables like ncrename will be installed with a "--prefix=..." 
argument to configure, as in

  ./configure --prefix=/usr/local/

to make sure executables such as ncrename will be installed in 
/usr/local/bin/ncrename (for example).

Alternatively, you could install NCO binaries for Redhat, avoiding the 
configure and compile steps, by using an RPM for NCO, for example:

http://rpm.pbone.net/index.php3/stat/4/idpl/1126877/com/nco-1.2.1-1.i386.rpm.html

To see other NCO RPM's, just Google for "nco rpm".

Unidata doesn't maintain or support NCO, so I'm sorry to say we can't answer 
specific questions about how to get NCO running from source in particular 
development environments.
