Howdy Yana!

I just checked, and I do get a netcdf.mod file installed on my machine, so 
perhaps something went wrong with your build.

You can check your configure script for this kind of output:

configure: setting up Fortran 90
checking for Fortran flag to compile .f90 files... none
checking fortran 90 modules inclusion flag... -I
checking if Fortran compiler can handle Fortran-90... yes

If your fortran 90 compiler doesn't work the netCDF configure will silently 
turn off the fortran 90 API. If this is happening, look in your config.log file 
to find out what is happening to your fortran compiler. The configure script 
builds some very simple F90 programs - if the F90 compiler fails to do this, 
netCDF does not try to use it.

Please let me know if this doesn't help.

Thanks,

Ed
