Hi David,
I tried to access the server, but found that it is password protected. It seems however that you must have accessed it to get the metadata. Do you have a username/password? Does ferret allow you to access password accounts?

I wonder if anyone has ever successfully accessed the opendap server for IPCC AR4 model output (http://esgcet.llnl.gov/dap/ipcc4) in FERRET. I tried, for instance in FERRET V6.1: yes? use "http://username:passwd@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx/cgi-bin/dap-cgi.py/ipcc4/20c3m/mri_cgcm2_3_2a/pcmdi.ipcc4.mri_cgcm2_3_2a.20c3m.run1.ocn.mo.xml" but failed:
**Internet Data error (OPeNDAP/netCDF Error code 1001)
While dncdump -h can correctly display the meta data of the above opendap URL. I wonder if this is because FERRET cannot deal with authorized opendap access. Those U.S. models require no authorization, and FERRET can access them, for example, yse? use "http://esgcet.llnl.gov/cgi-bin/dap-cgi.py/ipcc4/20c3m/gfdl_cm2_0/pcmdi.ipcc4.gfdl_cm2_0.20c3m.run1.ocn.mo.xml" yse? show data currently SET data sets: 1> http://esgcet.llnl.gov/cgi-bin/dap-cgi.py/ipcc4/20c3m/gfdl_cm2_0/pcmdi.ipcc4.gfdl_cm2_0.20c3m.run1.ocn.mo.xml (default) name title I J K L SO Salinity 1:360 1:200 1:50 1:1680 THETAO Potential Temperature 1:360 1:200 1:50 1:1680
I intended to save a regional subset of the model output (the global data are too huge), and thought FERRET would do. Thank you, David
