This is probably because your path does not include the current directory, which is common practice in the interest of security. Try: ./hello instead. [In the future, you'll probably be better served if you subscribe to a general Unix programming newsgroup or mailing list for this sort of questions. In fact, I'd be surprised if this isn't a FAQ on comp.unix.programmer.] Cheers. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble? Contact [EMAIL PROTECTED]
