Hello:

I'm at a client site here with an AIX box and no compiler or
make...SO...I have just installed the binaries here from
http://aixpdslib.seas.ucla.edu/aixpdslib.html for the 4.2 AIX box
here...all seems well til I try to run a ./configure command for any
piece of software....here are 2 samples.....what am I missing??

SHIMS:root:/usr/software/make-3.78.1# ./configure
loading cache ./config.cache
checking for a BSD compatible install... ./install-sh -c
checking whether build environment is sane... yes
checking whether make sets ${MAKE}... yes
checking for working aclocal... missing
checking for working autoconf... missing
checking for working automake... missing
checking for working autoheader... missing
checking for working makeinfo... missing
checking host system type... rs6000-ibm-aix4.2.1.0
checking whether make sets ${MAKE}... (cached) yes
checking for gcc... gcc
checking whether the C compiler (gcc  ) works... no
configure: error: installation or configuration problem: C compiler
cannot creat
e executables.

OR

SHIMS:root:/usr/software/gcc-2.95.2# ./configure
Configuring for a rs6000-ibm-aix4.2.1.0 host.
Created "Makefile" in /usr/software/gcc-2.95.2
gcc: installation problem, cannot exec `as': No such file or directory
*** The command 'gcc -o conftest -O2   conftest.c' failed.
*** You must set the environment variable CC to a working compiler.

My goal is to have a working C compiler and Make to build things like
Samba and the latest FTP server here...any suggestions are
appreciated. 

Thank you,

George
