i think i might have found a possible bug. someone please verify this one. it seems that when you untar a file, the original permissions don't seem to be preserved. I have a .tar.gz file of a tomcat distribution. First, the file is ungzipped, and then untarred. However, the bin/startup.sh and all other .sh files do not have the execute bit set, even though it is set in the archive, and in the directory structure from where it was tarred up. For now, i'm going to chmod all the .sh scripts, but this should probably be fixed.
