[hobbit] Anyone have a pre compiled solaris 10 or mac OSX client?

[William Ottley]

Hi Brian,
I'm trying to compile the client, on a fresh install of solaris 10, but I
keep getting this error, would you know why?

Checking your make-utility
GNU make is required to build Xymon.
If it is available as "gmake", run configure as: 'MAKE=gmake
./configure.client'
