What does netCDF run on?

Version 2.3 of netCDF has been tested on the following platforms:

• SPARCstation, SunOS 4.1.3
• DECstation or VAXstation, Ultrix 4.3
• VAXstation, VMS
• IBM RS-6000, AIX 3.x
• IBM PS/2, MSDOS 5.0
• IBM PS/2, OS/2
• CRAY YMP, UNICOS
• SGI, IRIX
• HP, HPUX

The experience of outside developers indicates that netCDF is relatively easy to port to any system that has a C compiler and an XDR library (eXternal Data Representation, used for NFS and usually supplied by vendors).
