Here's the question...

I am trying to install Open SSH on Solaris 8 and am getting the following errors. I was wondering if anyone could help? Here goes:

I have uncompressed the .tar.gz file and exported all the files to a certain directory. I have cd'd to that directory and entered the following commands:

$ ./configure

When logged in as my user name I recieve the following errors:

checking for gcc...no
checking for cc...cc
checking for C compiler default output...configure: error: C compiler cannot create executables.

When logged on as root I get these set of errors:

checking for gcc...no
checking for cc...no
checking for cc...no
checking for cl...no
configure: error: no acceptable cc found in $PATH

This is as far as I get. I am totally lost and am not a guru when it comes to Unix. If anyone can offer some advice, tips, whatever, I would be ecstatic. Thanks.
