Hi Carine, I don't know that much about ncks (or NCO in general) so we'll see if I can help. How are you setting the login/password? And what behavior are you seeing? Any error messages? Have you tried forming your OPeNDAP URL with the username and password embedded, e.g., http://user:password@yourserver/thredds/dodsC/path/dataset.nc If that doesn't work, you might also want to try asking your question on one of the NCO forums: http://nco.sourceforge.net/#Contact Ethan > I installed Thredds package 4.1 on tomcat server, and configured a > catalog.xml with 2 datasets.
