Re: [newbie] Re:Setting up Scanssh
With gcc and a few other applications Mandrake supply two versions. The default gcc3.2, and the older tried and tested gcc2.96 It is possible to have one or both installed at once. Which one gets used depends on the symlink /usr/bin/gcc which points to /etc/alternatives/gcc which itself is a symlink either to /usr/bin/gcc-3.2 or /usr/bin/gcc-2.96 So depending on how your symlink chain is set up you will use one compiler or the other. If your symlink chain is broken you will get the 'gcc not found message' Could that be your problem? derek On Sunday 05 Jan 2003 7:04 pm, Ralph M.

RE: [newbie] Re:Setting up Scanssh
Here's the weird thing - I've done a stock install of MDK 9 and I've gotten the missing gcc error before too! I know I've compiled stuff before with gcc, but certain programs (configure scripts) just refuse to see it. Is there any tidbit of wisdom that could point me and this fellow in the right direction? Something you pros already know to look for?

[newbie] Re:Setting up Scanssh
I've got Mandrake 9.0 installed and I'm trying install and run Scanssh. Now with this Program I got to the ./configure stage and it requires libpcap to install and run. So I downloaded libpcap-0.7.1.tar.gz and got that to the configure stage and this is what it told me After typing in # ./configure creating cache ./configure.cache checking host system type.i686-pc-linux-gnuoldld checking target system type...i686-pc-linux-gnuoldld checking building system typei686-pc-linux-gnuoldld checking for gcc..no checking for cc...no configure:error:no acceptable cc found in $PATH QUESTION: Does anyone know what I require to get this program up and runnnggcc & ...cc what are these? arguments? options? programs? if anyone can shed some light on this connundrum for me soon, I'll still have some hair left.
