I have installed hdf5-1.8.12 and zlig-1.2.8
I am trying to install netcdf-4.3.1.1
I used the following to try to configure netcdf
CFLAGS=-I/share/apps/include CPPFLAGS=-I/share/apps/include
LDFLAGS=-L/share/apps/lib ./configure --prefix=/share/apps

I'm not familiar with Centos 5 or the ROCKS cluster environment, but let
me take a stab at this.
The 'checking for library containing deflate' line looks a little odd to
me. I would expect it to say '-lz' instead of 'none required'. My
guess might be that the configure test is trying to link against the
hdf5 library but is failing because of undefined symbols related to zlib
(you mention in a different email that you had compiled hdf5 against
/share/apps/zlib-1.2.8). I see this sometimes when working with static
libraries in non-standard locations.
If you change your LDFLAGS to "LDFLAGS=-L/share/apps/lib -lz", do you
see a different result? You may need to modify your CFLAGS and LDFLAGS
to also accommodate your zlib install.
