What type of errors are you getting?

Sure, from:
http://cran.r-project.org/doc/manuals/R-data.html

"Packages hdf5, RNetCDF and ncdf on CRAN provide interfaces to NASA's HDF5 ..."

I'm not familiar with the differences between hdf5 and netCDF, but
perhaps those other packages can help (I see that they've been more
recently updated, anyway ...).
