Hi There,
Thanks for the help. I have successfully installed Ncar and NCL. I still had a couple of problems with libraries but I have managed to sort that out with a couple of ln -s commands and the download of a slightly older library for NCL.
Best regards, Marjolaine.

The above errors are specifically referencing missing symbols (SZ_...)
in one library: /usr/local/hdf/lib/libdf.a
This would indicate that you've built the HDF libraries with 'szip'
compression, and the szip library. If that's the case,
the NCAR Graphics build will expect to see that library at compile/link
time. Note the end of the link stage:
> -lmfhdf -ldf -ljpeg -lz -lm
-lmfhdf and -ldf are HDF-related libraries, -ljpeg is the jpeg
compression library, -lz the zip compression library (all used
by the HDF tools). You'll need to link in the szip library ('-lsz') if
you want to continue along this path. To do this, you can
do one of two things:
1. change the Makefiles located in
$NCARG_ROOT/ncarview/src/bin/{everything under this} as they'll all
have the same
definition for HDF libraries (which does not include '-lsz'),
and rebuild in each directory
2. change the definition of HDFLIB in the file
$NCARG_ROOT/config/Project to include '-lsz' and then re-run Configure
and remake everything. This is definitely the "right way" to
do things if you want szip compression, but also more
time-consuming,
You can also rebuild the HDF libs *without* szip (it's not required)
and that will solve the problem in an easier way. To do
this, do not use the "--with-szlib" option to configure when building
the HDF libs. The configure process will detect this
and suppress using it.

NCL is looking for the 'secure socket layer' (ssl) shared library. You
can set the environment variable LD_LIBRARY_PATH
to include the directory where libssl.so exists:
setenv LD_LIBRARY_PATH /path/to/where/libssl/exists
