Can you tell us specifically what problems you are encountering? We might 
be better able to address them then.

I ran into two problems compiling mapserver under Mandrake 9.0. Mapserver 
was looking for
libpng.so.22 which apparently does not come with  Mandrake 9.0 so I simply 
created a symbolic link to libpng.so.3 named: "libpng.so.22".

The other problem had to do with the gcc 3.2 compiler which is installed by 
default (the gcc 2.9 compiler is available in the Mandrake 9.0 distribution 
also). Norman Vine posted a work around for the 3.2 compiler: After you 
./configure, edit your Makefile and locate the line:
     "STATIC_LIBS= $(GD_STATIC) $(OGR_STATIC)"
and add " -lstdc++" at the end, so it should look like:
     "STATIC_LIBS= $(GD_STATIC) $(OGR_STATIC) -lstdc++"
