Marek,

The entry points that are not being found can be found in libF77.
I am suspicious that the warning you are getting:

  f77: Warning: -xarch=native has been explicitly specified, or implicitly
  specified by a macro option, -xarch=native on this architecture implies
  -xarch=v8plusa which generates code that does not run on pre UltraSPARC

may have something to do with the link failure.  Then again, the problem
may be in the location of the Sun Fortran libraries on your second machine.
Are they installed in a standard location?  Or, are they installed
in a location that is not searched by default by 'ld' when run from
'f77'.

As a comparison for your f77 line that is supposed to link sat-pixel,
here is the output from ~mcidas/mcidas2003/src/makelog on one of our
Sun Solaris SPARC 5.9 system with the WS7.0 Sun compilers for a routine
that links in nv1tanc.o:

f77 -s -O -o imgmag.k main.o imgmag.o -L. -R/usr/dt/lib -L/usr/dt/lib -R/usr/ope
nwin/lib -L/usr/openwin/lib -R/usr/local/lib -L/usr/local/lib -R/opt/SUNWspro/li
b -L/opt/SUNWspro/lib -lmcidas -lgen -lsocket -lnsl -lm

Notice how the link invocation is explicit in searching the Sun compiler
libraries (installed in /opt/SUNWspro/lib on our systems).

>Do you have any suggestion on what's causing the problem and (even more 
>important) how to fix it?

I suggest adding explict search of the directory your Sun Fortran compiler
libraries are installed in to your 'f77' invocation:

f77 -o sat-pixel -I/Satellite/srccode/lib -fast -DSUNISDOWN sat-pixel.o 
sunaev2.o grid.o -L/Satellite/srccode/lib -L/opt/SUNWspro/lib 
-L/home/mcidas/lib -lmcidas -lutil -lm -lsocket -lnsl

>I built mcidias software on both machines separately. I'm attaching
>2 logfiles, which are the output from "make all" command during
>installation., one, makelog which was generated automatically,
>and the other one, make_all.log, which was the stderr and stdout
>redirected to. 
>I have a feeling that the problem above may have something to do with

No, your problem is not related to this.  What is happening here is
'configure' for the netCDF part of the build has not been told
to _not_ build the C++ interface.  Since the C++ netCDF interface (and
F90 interface) is not used by McIDAS, we suggest not building it.
This is done by specifying:

CXX=""
F90=""

before starting the McIDAS build.

The list of environment variables that we suggest setting before you
start your McIDAS build can be found in:
