---- difficulty installing g++ on linux

I am administering a linux box remotely, and I need to install gcc-g++. I am trying to follow the directions here: [gcc.gnu.org...]

I downloaded the most recent release version, extracted the tar.gz, navigated into the libstdc++-v3 directory and ran ./configure. I got the following error:

configure: error: cannot find install-sh, install.sh, or shtool in "." "./.." "./../.."

I don't know where to go from here. I find the gcc installation instructions extremely hard to follow, and I would really appreciate your help.

In case it's helpful, here is my system info:

Linux version 2.6.18-028stab064.7-ent (root@rh5-build-x64) (gcc version 4.1.2 20071124 (Red Hat 4.1.2-42)) #1 SMP Thu Aug 20 22:25:02 MSD 2009

Thanks in advance!
