Yes - comes with FC2, but may not be installed, depending on the installation options you chose (i.e. development). [prs@radar0 prs]$ which g++ /usr/bin/g++ [prs@radar0 prs]$ rpm -qf /usr/bin/g++ gcc-c++-3.3.3-7 So, if it were not already installed, and assuming I had already configured /etc/yum.conf to point to a nearby mirror rather than the redhat site, I'd do... [prs@radar0 prs]$ su - Password: xxxxxxxx [root@radar0 root]# yum install gcc-c++ ... Can also use up2date, apt, (again configure for your favorite mirrors) or straight download/"rpm -ivh <package>".
