Yes, you only need to install the netCDF C library to get ncdump and other netCDF utilities (nccopy, ncgen, nc-config), which will be installed in /usr/local/bin by default, or in the bin/ subdirectory of wherever you specify with the --prefix= option to the configure script. I would recommend using either the netcdf-4.3.0 release from 3 months ago, or the new netcdf-4.3.1-rc1 release candidate that will probably be available later this week. We test our releases on Solaris, so it building from source should be straightforward, following these instructions: http://www.unidata.ucar.edu/netcdf/docs/building.html --Russ > Meant to add this for SPARC Solaris 10 and Solaris 11.1 servers. > > On 8/6/2013 10:35 AM, Rob Patten wrote: > > Question on general download and install for Solaris 10 and Solaris 11.1 > > OS. > > > > Have a user who is requesting us to install NCDUMP on a server for their > > use.
