Greetings!

It looks like the netCDF FORTRAN library is not being linked to your program. I 
see from your genie make log that you are using:

-L/usr/local/lib -lnetcdf

to link to netCDF, which is actually missing a link flag (which is why your 
program cannot find any nf_* symbols). I am not sure how you compile the 
program, but make sure you also link to -lnetcdff:

-L/usr/local/lib -lnetcdff -lnetcdf

Cheers!
