GCC on FreeBSD is "special" in the sense that you should either use the version that's included in the base system (4.2.1 as of 8.0-RELEASE), or if you need an older/different version, install it from ports/packages. The same goes for gmake. You managed to get the source code to both gcc and gmake on a system which isn't connected to the Internet, so surely you could download the binary versions of the FreeBSD packages and install those...? Take a peek in: ftp://ftp.freebsd.org/pub/FreeBSD/ports/i386/packages-8.0-release/All/ Look for gcc* and gmake*. These are probably what you want: -rw-r--r-- 1 110 1002 351139 Oct 20 2009 gmake-3.81_3.tbz -rw-r--r-- 1 110 1002 14269507 Oct 20 2009 gcc-3.4.6_3,1.tbz If you download these packages, you can get them onto the machine however possible and simply pkg_add the files (literally: "pkg_add xxx.tbz"). You might have to download some dependency packages, but pkg_add should tell you what those are if needed. -- | Jeremy Chadwick j...@parodius.com | | Parodius Networking http://www.parodius.com/ | | UNIX Systems Administrator Mountain View, CA, USA | | Making life hard for others since 1977.
