Thanks again for your help.

I just tried to install yum. Python is version 2.2.3, so that means we need yum version 2.0.X. I followed the instructions here:

Everything went fine until executing make, which produced a bunch of errors:

[root@#*$!X yum-2.0.7]# make

make -C $subdir ; \

Are you sure the version you downloaded was compatible with the linux install?

No, I'm not sure, nor do I know how to find out what the correct version of g++ would be for my linux install. Do you know how I can find out what the right version is?

Would need to see the full list of errors before the configure: error to see what is breaking it.

There aren't any errors that I know of before the configure. Here's what I did to attempt to install gcc-g++:

[root@#*$!X root]# ls
gcc-4.4.4 gcc-g++-4.4.tar.gz yum
[root@#*$!X root]# cd gcc-4.4.4
[root@#*$!X gcc-4.4.4]# ls
gcc libstdc++-v3
[root@#*$!X gcc-4.4.4]# cd libstdc++-v3/
[root@#*$!X libstdc++-v3]# ls
