Thanks Anthony,

Having browsed "man cpp" and found out what it does, I symlinked
/usr/local/bin/cpp to /lib/cpp and the compilation got a lot further. Is it
just me or does /lib seem an odd place to look for an executable? The next
stage the compilation crashed out on was failing to find the zlib libraries.
I just symlinked /usr/local/lib/libz.a to
/usr/src/vnc-3.3.7-unixsrc/zlib/libz.a and the whole lot compiled OK.

So its nothing to do with C++ libraries at all!

Thanks again for your input.

Tony
