Hello all

I have a problem working with my opendap server, when working inside the
proxy server, it simply doesnt work, I read already the thread:

That discusses this:

My question is, where can i put this commands in order to make my
proxyhost to work with the snctools?

I tried putting this commands in the file nc_info_java.m of the snctools
with my proxy host and port, but still it didn't work.

this is the error that i get:

??? Error using ==> nc_info_java at 36
Could not open
'http://my.server.mx:8080/thredds/dodsC/opanatl3_full/opanatl3_full__1965--2006'
 as
either a local file, a regular URL, or as a DODS URL.

Any work arounds for this, i would really apreciate it!.

Thank you!
