LPI-cc (included in ISC UNIX 2.2) is ANSI compliant, but I have heard bad words about it on the net. Probably the best answer is GNU-cc which has been ported to the 386 environment. >Second question, is it possible get allow root to log into a virtual >terminal, instead of being restricted to using the console? Yes. Change the /etc/default/login file. (comment out the line CONSOLE=... by adding a # at the begining of the line) You probably want to make the same change to /etc/default/su. -- Conor P.

The compiler which originally came with SVr3.2 is NOT ANSI C compatible.
However, AT&T has subsequently come out with a new version of System V
release 3 which DOES come with an ANSI C compiler (as well as an ANSI C lint
and other tools).

It choked too. > I tried it with gcc on the same system, and it worked. Easily understood. The cc that comes with SVR3 is _not_ an ANSI compiler. Never has been. Never will be. Now, the cc that comes with SVR4 _IS_ ANSI-compliant. SCO Unix comes with both the AT&T compiler (invoked by using 'rcc' instead of 'cc') _AND_ the Microsoft ANSI compiler (invoked by 'cc'), so you have both ways. If you have SVR3 and want ANSI, cheaply, GCC is the way to go. ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- [- O] Rick Stevens, Technology Marketing Incorporated ?

True.
=Never has been.
Also true.
=Never will be.
BZZZZZZT!! CI 5.0 is available with AT&T SVR3.2.2. It's the
same CI 5.0 that's distributed with R4.0.
