Hi,

I am getting the following error when trying to use the NetCDF4version of ncdump on a 7.7 GB file created using the 64BIT_OFFSEToption:

*** /usr/local/bin/ncdump: ncopen failed on e4oper.fc.ml.19970116-19970120.nc


This ncdump was built from the netcdf-4.0-beta1 source on an Intel Mac

ncdump from version 3.6.2 built on the same machine works fine on thesame file.

Darwin xxxxx 8.10.1 Darwin Kernel Version 8.10.1: Wed May 23 16:33:00PDT 2007; root:xnu-792.22.5~1/RELEASE_I386 i386 i386


Is this a known problem?
