[SGVLUG] backup exec remote agent on FC 5?

[James Neff]

Mike,

Thank you very much for your reply.

When I tried yum this is what I got:

yum install compat-gcc-c++
Loading "installonlyn" plugin
Setting up Install Process
Setting up repositories
extras                                                               [1/3]
extras                    100% |=========================| 1.1 kB    00:00
updates                                                              [2/3]
updates                   100% |=========================| 1.2 kB    00:00
core                                                                 [3/3]
core                      100% |=========================| 1.1 kB    00:00
Reading repository metadata in from local files
Parsing package install arguments
No Match for argument: compat-gcc-c++
Nothing to do


Any other suggestions?

Thanks,
James
