Hello,

I have used gdal 1.9.1 to view various HDF4 and HDF5 files without a 
problem.  I am current trying to use gdalinfo to look at a MODIS L2 Aqua 
Cloud Product data file ( MYD06_L2.A2002244.0410.004.2004203230354.hdf ) 
and it does not recognize the file format.  Is it because it is a Level 
2 product or because it is HDF-EOS format?  I have compiled gdal from 
source with both the HDF4 and HDF5 libraries.

Thanks,
Karan
