Hi All,
I just upgraded to the recent TDS 4.2.8 release and cannot get ncISO
working. Unlike before, it appears that I no longer need to manually install
the threddsIso*.jar file, the metadata-servlet.xml file, and update the
web.xml file myself as described at http://www.ngdc.noaa.gov/eds/tds/ since
these things are already in place when I downloaded and installed the TDS
4.2.8 thredds.war file. However, there seems to be some extra thing I need
to do in order to enable it? When I go to my ISO services, I get the
following error:

HTTP Status 403: ISO service not supported. Access to the specified resource
(ISO service not supported) has been forbidden.

And here's what appears in threddsServlet.log:
