The first thing that I saw was that you had not installed f2c, f2c.h, or libf2c. I did see a /usr/local/include/f2c.h and a dangling link for libf2c.a: /usr/local/lib/libf2c.a -> /usr/lib/libf2c.a. The file /usr/lib/libf2c.a does not exist. Since these must be installed as 'root', and since the McIDAS remote ADDE server needs tob be installed as 'root', you have two options: o give me root access o do the root installation stuff yourself I FTPed mcidasx760.tar.Z, mcinstall, and mcinet7.6.sh today and then found that f2c was missing. Since f2c is needed for the build (g77 does not work), I am at an impasse. Tom
