RE: Problem downloading Tomcat from archives

You're using Solaris tar. You need to use GNU tar. Otherwise directories get
chopped.

Once using GNU tar, you can type:

tar zxvf jakarta-tomcat-4.0.6.tar.gz

To extract it.

BTW, such a question should be posted to the tomcat-user list in future.

Cheers,
Brett
