Thank you for replying. Unfortunately I do not have access to the compiler on my linux box. All I have is access to FTP. I don't want to install Linux just to compile 1 file (And I have never installed Linux before, so you can imagine what I have to go through)

In that case you need to ask for help to the system administrator of that machine or check the site of the company that build the Linux distribution installed in the server.


Linux is not like Windows where usually you can pick generic binaries and they will work on most machines. Linux binaries need to be compiled for the specific version of the libraries installed in the machine or else it may not work.

Another point is that Linux is based on Unix standards, especially the user and permissions model. I doubt that you alone can install pre-compiled binaries in your machine with a common user, thus without administration (root) privileges. If you could do that, the security of that machine would be compromised.
