I downloaded a file "php-4.0.6.tar.gz" and I opened it with Archiver and  extracted it to a directory "PHP". I tried doing the ./configure and I got errors. Here is  what happened:
 
[root@192 PHP]# ./configure
loading cache ./configure.cache
checking for  a BSD compatible install.../usr/bin/install -c
checking whether make sets ${MAKE}... no
checking for working aclocal... missing
checking for working autoconf... missing

checking for working autoheader... missing
checking for working makeinfo... found

configure: warning:  You will need bison if you want to regenerate the PHP parsers.
checking for gcc... no
checking for  cc...no
configure: error: no acceptable cc found in  $PATH
[root@192 PHP]#
 
If  I try doing the make or make  export I get nothing but:
 
bash: make: command not  found
 
I'm at a loss here. I thought Mandrake shipped  with php installed  but  I think I'm wrong. I've been  trying to install this  on and off for ove 2 weeks and I have gotten no where. Any help  would  be greatly  appreciated.
 
Thanks
