Probably your 'ar' is not in the PATH environment variable 'ar' could be (at least in Solaris) in /usr/ccs/bin directory You can check it by command: 'find / -name ar' Check what is in PATH: 'echo $PATH' If you don't find the ar_directory then: PATH=$PATH:/ar_directory export PATH

"man ar" would help. ciao artur > I am sure that this is just ignorance on my part, but what is 'ar'.
