Hi Sandy,

There is an uninstall target in the Makefile at the top directory of
the source tree, so if you run with the same permissions used to
install netCDF, "make uninstall" will uninstall the latest version.
If you still have all the source directories for all t5he versions
that have been installed, "make uninstall at the top of each such
source directory should uninstall all the versions, at least back to
the first version in which the uninstall target was supported as a
make target.

If you don't have all the source directories available, you may have to 
manually follow the pattern of what the latest "make uninstall" does.
