Mike,

This says that the loader is not finding your netCDF library

The file msoft.mk is designed for MSDOS and OS/2 systems using the Microsoft
C 6.0 and Fortran 5.1 compilers.  Since you are on a Sun, you should not
be attempting to use this file.  

>What should I do?  

Please refer to makefile that is in the distribution.

Hmm... The only time you will need a library is when you are building
an executable.  I assume that this is what you are trying to do.  Is
this correct?

>library and correct this problem?

After I know exactly what you are trying to do, I can give you the help
that you need.
