Had a feeling you were going to say the Sun word :-) It sounds like you are missing a bunch of system header files, used for compiling any programs. IIRC they live in something like /usr/include (at least on a slackware linux) or /usr/src/[architecture]/include. Either that or they are located somewhere where the compiler can't find them; does 'locate unix.h' return anything - assuming locate is up2date on your system. If not, unless there is a Sun guru here, you might want to check on a Sun- specific list about exactly what you need to get and how. Cheers -- David Robley Temporary Kiwi! Quod subigo farinam
