Hi All,
Cent OS 5.3. I need to install the gcc toolchain, but what yum packages is this?
I need to compile ProFTPD, etc, etc. I tried yum install gcc, what else?

You could use "yum grouplist" to show available groups:
yum grouplist
Then, use "yum groupinfo" to check on a group that likely provides what you're looking for:
[root@rover ~]# yum groupinfo "Development Tools" Loaded plugins: downloadonly, fastestmirror Setting up Group Process Loading mirror speeds from cached hostfile * rpmforge: ftp-stud.fht-esslingen.de * base: mirrors.versaweb.com * updates: mirror.sanctuaryhost.com * addons: mirror.hmc.edu * extras: mirror.dhsrv.com
Group: Development Tools Description: These tools include core development tools such as automake, gcc, perl, python, and debuggers. [output truncated]
Sounds like the group you want, so:
yum groupinstall "Development Tools"
should do the trick...
