This could have worked... but it looks like whomever is creating the TAR file has a different path to CVS than you and I.


Rob:
Empty out the directory ("rm -rf *") before running the CVS checkout.  After the initial checkout you will be able to just run CVS
update.


To whomever is creating the TAR file:
If you checkout Tomcat from CVS using the public path, then what Rob tried will work.  Should cut the load on the CVS server (which
seems a tad slow for some reason) somewhat.
