Hi Ray, Thanks for you help. Ok, this is making more sense now. However, I did try a pre-compiled package of nessus and this is where the problem is coming in. When I first started with nessus, I complied everything from scratch and really had no problems. I don't see why the pre-complied stuff is causing such havoc. I tried asking the nessus folks for help, but they were nasty to me, so I came here. I did find the gtk-devel stuff and will give that a shot. Anything else I should be thinking of?

Anna -- In the Debian packaging system, gtk-config (actually, /usr/bin/gtk-config) is not part of the main GTK package. It is part of the corresponding -dev package, the one that mainly provides header files (a bunch of stuff that goes in /usr/include) for compiling apps. Even if you installed the GTK libraries themselves (as you must have, if you are running Gnome), you may not have installed theve -dev files. Your options are: 1. Install the appropriate -dev package. The relevant Debian package is named libgtk1.2-dev . Look for something similar in your RH package list. 2. Install a pre-compiled version of nessus instead of compiling it yourself. Debian has both nessus (the client) and nessusd (the server), so RH probably has something similar. - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-newbie" in the body of a message to [EMAIL PROTECTED] More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.linux-learn.org/faqs - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-newbie" in the body of a message to [EMAIL PROTECTED] More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.linux-learn.org/faqs
