I made the distro and it was made on a linux box. The problem is indeed the ant task.
How big of an issue is this? Wouldn't a readme be enough?

I tested it too, so if we zip with /usr/bin/zip the produced zip file maintains the file permissions, as long as you unzip with /usr/bin/unzip. If you use the 'jar' utility, the permission are lost when zipping, and also ignored when unzipping (if they were put there by /usr/bin/zip). So a solution would be to A) Make sure the jboss bin .sh file have the correct permissions, or 'chmod ugo+rx $JBOSS_HOME/bin/*.sh' (since those are set in the bin-tgz target, etc.) B) zip with the external utility, e.g.: /usr/bin/zip -9qr jboss-4.0.4.GA.zip jboss-4.0.4.GA/ C) Document that the user needs to either use the zip utility on unix, or jar -xvf and chmod yourself.
