The problem appears to be udunits2, which RNetCDF uses and ncdf does
not. Specifically
--with-udunits-lib='/soft/local/udunits-2.1.23/lib'"
is that path in the ld.so cache or in LD_LIBRARY_PATH? If not, it
will not be found by dlload.

Hi,
You could try installing the ncdf package. This installed for my without
any problems when RNetCDF failed. I suspect ncdf has very similar
functionality, but i've only worked with ncdf.
install.packages("ncdf")
should do the trick...
cheers,
Paul

On a Red Hat Linux cluster I am seeing the following after multiple
