Description:
I did ./configure

# ./configure
NOTE: This is a MySQL binary distribution. It's ready to run, you don't
need to configure it!

To help you a bit, I am now going to create the needed MySQL databases
and start the MySQL server for you.  If you run into any trouble, please
consult the MySQL manual, that you can find in the Docs directory.

Installing all prepared tables
Fill help tables

To start mysqld at boot time you have to copy support-files/mysql.server
to the right place for your system

PLEASE REMEMBER TO SET A PASSWORD FOR THE MySQL root USER !
To do so, start the server, then issue the following commands:
./bin/mysqladmin -u root password 'new-password'
./bin/mysqladmin -u root -h corsair password 'new-password'
See the manual for more instructions.

NOTE:  If you are upgrading from a MySQL <= 3.22.10 you should run
the ./bin/mysql_fix_privilege_tables. Otherwise you will not be
able to use the new GRANT command!

You can start the MySQL daemon with:
cd . ; ./bin/mysqld_safe &

You can test the MySQL daemon with the benchmarks in the 'sql-bench' directory:
cd sql-bench ; perl run-all-tests

Please report any problems with the ./bin/mysqlbug script!

Starting the mysqld server.  You can test that it is up and running
with the command:
./bin/mysqladmin version
# Starting mysqld daemon with databases from /usr/local/mysql-standard-4.1.7-sun-solaris2.9-sparc-64bit/data
STOPPING server from pid file /usr/local/mysql-standard-4.1.7-sun-solaris2.9-sparc-64bit/data/corsair.pid
041027 09:38:21  mysqld ended

./bin/mysqladmin -u root password ap@ch3
./bin/mysqladmin: connect to server at 'localhost' failed
error: 'Can't connect to local MySQL server through socket '/tmp/mysql.sock' (146)'
Check that mysqld is running and that the socket: '/tmp/mysql.sock' exists!

went to do make and it says it cant find make. 

How to repeat:
type ./configure
make
cant find file

and follow the steps mentioned.

Thanks in advance

I already followed these steps

shell> groupadd mysql
shell> useradd -g mysql mysql
shell> gunzip < mysql-VERSION.tar.gz | tar -xvf -
shell> cd mysql-VERSION
shell> ./configure --prefix=/usr/local/mysql
shell> make

As you can see ./configure says that you have a binary distribution, so it can't be compiled.

Can you state which package you have downloaded?
