H Madeline,

Thanks for your patience.

I verified that I had the same problem as you, and created a new binary for you to try.

Can you download this new file, and install it the same way you did before, and let me know if it works:

    ftp ftp.ucar.edu
    <log in as "anonymous">
    <Use email address as password>
    cd /pub/scd/haley
    get ncl_ncarg-6.0.0.Linux_RedHat_x86_64_nodap_gcc412.tar.gz
    quit 

The instructions for installing the software are the same as before:
