Yes, that looks fine.  If this executed OK and didn't produce any error
messages, the library should have been created and installed.

No, you just need to tell f77 where to find the installed library, using
something like:

    f77 program.f -o program -L/home3/notaro/netcdf-232pl2 -lnetcdf

If you want it to find the include file, you should probably also add the
flag

   -I /home3/notaro/netcdf-232pl2/include

to tell f77 where to look for it if it's not in the current working
directory, although some platforms have a different way of specifying
include directory search paths for Fortran compilers.
