Segmentation fault when reading from DODs server

Dear NCLelers,

I have written a script to extract a sub-set of model fields from (very
large) CFSR reanalysis datasets using a DODs version of NCL. Its is saving
a lot of time not to have to transfer these big files over the network.
However, as the script goes along over a time loop it sometimes gives a
³segmentation fault² and the script stops. Then, by hand I have to restart
the script and it continues on past the date that gave the original problem.
I suspect there are occasional problems with the network, but I have not
been able to confirm this. So, my question is: Is there any way to make the
script ³retry² the addfile preventing the segmentation fault to occur and
the script to stop? Any other suggestions?

Thanks in advance for any guidance.
Andrea
