Hi, How are you pointing ERDDAP at thredds.ucar.edu? As far as I understand ERDDAP is server software, so that means you've configured a server somewhere to point to that opendap endpoint on thredds.ucar.edu? We know Bob, and can reach out as necessary, but I'm still not quite sure what the issue is or where it's coming from. Even doing: wget https://thredds.ucar.edu/thredds/dodsC/grib/NCEP/GFS/Global_0p25deg/TwoD.dds works fine for me.
