If you have installed Tomcat (jakarta.apache.org) the servlet classes are contained within a jar file at $TOMCAT_HOME/common/lib/servlet.jar (for v4, lib and common should be swapped for v3, I think)
You need to put this in your classpath: setenv CLASSPATH ${CLASSPATH}:${TOMCAT_HOME}/common/lib/servlet.jar (for (t)csh) or export CLASSPATH={CLASSPATH}:${TOMCAT_HOME}/common/lib/servlet.jar (for (ba)sh) HTH Rob -- ______________________________________________________________ | o o ^ |Robert Horton --- [EMAIL PROTECTED] | | / \ |School of Informatics | \___/ / o \ |University of Wales, Bangor | / o \|http://www.sees.bangor.ac.uk/~robh |_______/_______|______________________________________________| ___________________________________________________________________________ To unsubscribe, send email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] and include in the body of the message "signoff SERVLET-INTEREST".
