Hello,

I am not familiar with Trilinos, but it sounds like you are not properly 
linking against the netCDF library when compiling Trilinos.  You might contact 
the Trilinos development team/support and see if they can provide you with any 
help in compiling their software, as it sounds like the issue is with the build 
and not netCDF itself.

I'm sorry we can't provide more immediate help, have a great day,

-Ward
