Question on installing C (or is there a need to?)
Hello..
I'm new to the Sun Solaris OS (we are using 5.8). It would appear our host_agent requires openssl, and it would appear that this isn't part of the OS in 5.8.
I found a freeware version of openssl, and it requires a Ansi standard C compiler.
When I attempt to issue a 'cc' command it returns the message
/usr/ucb/cc: language optional software package not installed
Now I have the full box on Solaris 8 (about 20 cd's) and the only reference to c is an 'Forte developer 6 update cd". Is this the right C to install?
When I look at the man pages it references a product called SUNWspro, and I went looking for a down-load for that and can't find one.
I was hoping someone could point me to the correct product to install to allow the openssl to build.
I realize that 5.8 isn't the newest, but its what our customer is running and I need to get out host_agent going on that version of Solaris.
Thanks in advance for your help.
