Samba installation on Sun Solaris 8

by lcw . Updated 23 years, 7 months ago

I’ve follow the steps to install the samba on my Sun solaris 8.
I’d make a directory at a convenient point in the file system to hold the source code and copy the source into this directory. For example:

# mkdir -p /opt/source/samba
# cd /opt/source/samba
# cp /tmp/samba-2.0.6.tar.gz .
Unzip and untar the source and then change to the directory created by tar:

# gunzip samba*
# tar xvf samba*
# cd samba-2.0.6
At this point, you may like to have a look at the README file for general information and at the file docs/textdocs/UNIX_INSTALL.txt for detailed installation instructions. If you’re impatient, just follow the instructions here which should be enough to get you started..

3. Compile the source code and install Samba:
Configure the compilation process for your system:

# cd source
# ./configure
Compile the source code:

But I was stuck at this step and the errors message sound like this
checking for gcc…no
checking for cc…no
configure: error:no acceptable cc found in $Path
Pls advise.
