You can install the package anywhere you like.  There is no specific
location that it should be installed, but you may want to consider
installing it in a location that is logical for your site -- assuming
that you are going to be doing program development that links against
the netCDF library.

Nothing really.  What were your expectations?

You would get an error if the installation step failed.  Did you get
any errors?  If no, it was installed correctly.

>Looking forward for your kind reply,

Please let us know if the above answers are not what you were looking
for.
