I have been trying to setup a jabber server on redhat 8.0. I follow the instructions and it starts the configure but errors out. I have fresh install of redhat so I have no idea what to do.
This is what is says:

[root@student jabber-1.4.2]# ./configure

You may now type 'make' to build your new Jabber system.

[root@student jabber-1.4.2]# make

Thanks

well you havne't even got a ompiler installed. install gcc from your distro cd's.

It comes under the 'Development Tools' Section of the RedHat package grou selector.

Thanks guys!!
