We use the Thredds catalog to produce http://iridl.ldeo.columbia.edu/SOURCES/.WCRP/.CMIP3/ and that page has a number of useful links. The original Thredds catalog is at http://esgcet.llnl.gov/dap/ipcc4/?thredds We occasionally find a problem, and a fair number of the time bounds have some single precision noise that appeared in the conversion process, but there is a lot of useful data there. Both our service and the original use the same user/password that you get in the first place to access the data, i.e. IRI does not issue the password.
