Hello, I'm trying to get Samba installed on my PowerPC G3. I have downloaded Samba2.2.8a and 3.0.0beta2 but the same problem persists. Once I uncompress the tar file, then try to run the ./configure command, It wont configure and fail. The error message goes something like this: ==================================================== ./configure Checking for gcc... no Checking for cc ... no Checking for cc ... no Checking for cl ... no Configure error: no acceptable C compiler found in $PATH ===================================================== Do you have any ideas why this is happening? I know your very busy but I have run out of ideas Many thanks Oli
Perhaps you may want to install a compiler (gcc?) Perhaps you might want to learn how to use google? " I know your very busy but I have run out of ideas" What ideas did you have exactly, for once the error message is telling you exactly what is wrong.. You don't have gcc, cc or cl and "Configure error: no acceptable C compiler found" Looks pretty clear to me.

Hi try write how OS you use on your PowerPC? If any linux dist then you must first install developer engine (gcc + cpp + libs + headers) for compiling any software. Afther this yuo can configure and make samba... Second way is possible if your distribution solve samba try install this compiled version (for PPC cpu must be all!).

You'll need to sign up (free!) and then follow the links for downloads and the development packages. It might be on the install cd's too, but I don't know off the top of my head. mark
