Howdy Fred!

If you are running a linux server with network access, perhaps you can install 
netCDF from a repository (ex. yum install netcdf).

If you need to build it, do you need the fortran and C++ libraries too? If not, 
you can turn them off with --disable-fortran --disable-cxx when configuring the 
netCDF build.

If none of this helps, I need you to send the output of make check, and the 
file config.log.

Thanks,

Ed
