[EP-tech] New Server Net::LDAP install Problem

Hi James,

There is a virtual package I install on almost all dev servers I run 
with Debian/Ubuntu called build-essential.? I have never found an 
equivalent for RHEL-based Linux but I had never spent a huge amount of 
time looking, as I rarely build from source on such flavours of Linux.? 
A quick bit of Googling, suggests an equivalent-ish of:

|yum groupinstall 'Development Tools'|

Although, it may not always be as straightforward as a single command, 
which is probably why I just install gcc, make, etc. as required or RHEL.

Regards

David Newman
