okay, i compiled wu-ftpd on a machine with gcc running solaris 2.4, it 
compiled and installed with error.

and then tared up the wu-ftpd dir transferred it to another machine which 
has no gcc and is running solaris 2.5, when i run ./build install i get 
the error 

make args are :
make opts are :
./build: make: not found

but if i manually install it it works fine (execpt for a pid error) .. i 
was just curious to find out what the problem is

thanks

This is because the "make" program is not in the path for user root. I created a symlink
from /usr/bin to /usr/ccs/bin/make where it is on my Solaris 2.5 machine. It doesn't
matter anyway because the install option doesn't work on a Solaris 2.5 machine.... you
have to install it manually. 

If u want a Solaris 2.5 gcc compiler which is pre-comiled, and works fine!, then check
out his URL

We have used the binary and it works fine.
