Mary,
Go to the nc_test directory and run "make lfs_test"
It might be that your machine can't support large files on the file
system you're using. If so, it would cause the large file tests of
netcdf to fail.
make lfs_test will test that you can actually get files larger than 2
GB, without netcdf. The test uses the dd command to create a very
large file. If it doesn't work, it's not a netcdf problem, but a file
system/OS problem.
Good luck,
Ed
