This stackguard enabled gcc is new to me, so will have to do some
googling. The question I have is how to install it without breaking
anything. Does it overwrite the gcc that is installed - and if so,
maybe that is no problem? Thanks again.

after watching my files ;-)

# rpm -qa|grep sg-
sg-cpp-1.1.2-30_SG201_cobalt
sg-egcs-1.1.2-30_SG201_cobalt

I noticed that I installed the RaQ550 compiler a while ago which works still fine on my RaQ4 ...

you might get them from:

# rpm -Uvh ftp://ftp.cobalt.sun.com/pub/products/raq550/RPMS/sg-cpp-1.1.2-30_SG201_cobalt.i386.rpm
# rpm -Uvh ftp://ftp.cobalt.sun.com/pub/products/raq550/RPMS/sg-egcs-1.1.2-30_SG201_cobalt.i386.rpm

get proftpd-1.2.8 (better use the 1.2.8 stable the the 1.2.9 RC)

# cd /tmp
# wget ftp://ftp.proftpd.org/distrib/source/proftpd-1.2.8.tar.bz2
# tar -jxvf proftpd-1.2.8.tar.bz2
# cd proftpd-1.2.8
# ./configure --with-modules=mod_tls --prefix=/usr --sysconfdir=/etc

Uh oh. I got this far and then got an error message stating that there was no gcc in Path. I might have missed something. Do I need to add a symlink somewhere. I have two (at least) gcc-lib, one in /usr/sg/lib which is date august 02, and one in /usr/lib which is from 2001.

Hopefully an easy fix?

cheers, Jim D.
