Roger,

'strip' gets installed in the /usr/ccs/bin directory on Solaris
systems, but it may not get installed if you did a minimal development
installation.

The first thing to check is if 'strip' can be found in its "usual" place:

ls -lat /usr/ccs/bin/strip

If it is there, the error you show below is telling us that /usr/ccs/bin
is not in your PATH.  You should then edit your shell definition file
(i.e., .cshrc if you use the C shell; .profile for the Bourne shell; 
or .profile or .kshrc if you use the Korn shell) and add this directory
to your PATH definition.  Remember that after changing the shell definition
file, you need to make the changes active (source .cshrc for C shell users;
. .profile for Bourne shell users; . .profile or . .kshrc for Korn shell
users).

If it is not there, then you have two choices:

o do a development installation for Solaris
o edit ~mcidas/mcidas7.7/src/makefile and change:

STRIP           = -s
# STRIP         =

to:

# STRIP           = -s
STRIP         =

After either of these two, you can restart your build:

cd mcidas7.7/src
make all
