Yup, you do. There has not been much call for OPeNDAP servers on PC  
machines, so I'm not sure what the state of that is. Either Rob, Dan  
Holloway or James Gallagher can provide more input on this.

Are there others on the e-mail list who would like to see a netCDF  
server for Windows machines? If there is sufficient interest in this  
and it is not available now, we should be able to set you up pretty  
quickly.

Peter

p.s. What kind of data are you serving?

p.p.s. Are you using your rotating table?
