Trying to install on RH7.2 and I am a beginner. Follow all directions exactly except when it says to make sure /home/mailman has the setgid bit set (I have NO clue what that means)
When I do ./configure I get this error:
error: no acceptable cc found in $path
please help

Sounds like you need to install the C compiler.
What happens if you type
gcc -v
??
If you get "command not found" you're certainly missing the C compiler, and probably the rest of the baggage needed to compile programs.

When you installed RedHat, did you choose to install "everything" or did you select individual packages? If you selected individual packages, did you install the "Development" stuff? If not, you might not have installed gcc (the C compiler).
