Hi all,

I recently installed redhat 5.2 and is totally new to linux or unix
environment.  I've been having lots of problem installing any programs in
linux as when i run the make command (after running the configure command)
this error always occurs (in every program that i've tried to install)

*** no target

i've read the INSTALL and README files and followed what it says but I
always get stuck in the make command.  Any help would be very much
appreciated.

If you guys need more information please tell me as i dont really know what
is important and what's not.

TIA
roger
