[CentOS] server without gcc?

} 
} As was previously mentioned, gcc is part of the Development Tools group.
} As such:
} 
} yum groupinstall "Development Tools"
} 
} should take care of your one fell swoop requirement :-)

i am grateful!, thank you to all who replied i.e. Matt, Karanbir, Jim and
Johnny

man, you know, man, man pages always used to be for "switch specifics" as
far as i was concerned...

now it seems that with the advent of newer tools that they man pages might
also point in _broader_ command switch specific directions.

thank you for pointing that out. i wasnt totally aware of "groupinstall" let
alone "grouplist"

sheesh...

thing is, that which can get you info in a hurry, can also destroy a
production box in a hurry...

CentOS test machines and the CentOS list "are your friends" ;->

sorry, couldnt resist :-)
