Here is a URL for getting GNU software: ftp://gatekeeper.dec.com/pub/GNU/tar/ Download it, untar it with Solaris tar and read the REAME and INSTALL, and they should explain most of what you need. If you can't surf the WWW, I don't know how to help you. jas. --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
