Paidemwoyo- The kerberos library reference is coming from libcurl, which is used by the netcdf DAP code. If you do not DAP, then you can use the --disable-dap flag to get rid of the kerberos (and curl) dependency. Alternatively, you can rebuild libcurl and tell it not to use kerberos (do not remember off hand the correct ./configure flag). =Dennis Heimbigner Ticket Details =================== Ticket ID: UPB-190795 Department: Support netCDF Priority: Critical Status: Open
