Hi All,
I downloaded ethereal-0.10.6 source code from www.ethereal.com
I am trying to build the source code on SOLARIS following steps of user
guide(section 2.4).
I run  ./configure command.

The output is giving error like:
****************************************************************************
******************************************
checking build system type... sparc-sun-solaris2.8

checking for gcc... no
checking for cc... cc
checking for C compiler default output file name... configure: error: C
compiler cannot create executables
See `config.log' for more details.
****************************************************************************
*******************************************

I am attaching config.log.doc(same as config.log) for your information.
Can anybody please help me in solving this error ?

Regards
Raghavendra Pai

Yes, http://www.ethereal.com/download.html

You should read the COPYING file that comes with the source code, it 
contains the license under which you may use the code.  If you have any 
questions, I'm sure cisco's lawyers are quite familiar with the GNU 
General Public License these days...
