Hi Chuck,

The warning about tar is in one of the README files (the one describing
different versions).

BTW, I notice that in my Solaris system, it looks like some Tomcat
packages are already installed, probably because I did a "full" Solaris
installation.  It's kind of strange though.  I can't find any
"server.xml" files anywhere.  It's like a partial installation?

Do you or anyone know how I can fully install whatever version comes
with Solaris 9?  That'd be the easiest, because I have problems bringing
in CDs at where I work, so if we can use whatever Sun happened to put
into the Solaris distro, that'd be great.  We only need Tomcat 4.1
standalone, minimum.  I need this (Tomcat) because an app that I'm
trying to install calls for Tomcat 4.1 because it's distributed as a
WAR.  

No need for Apache, etc.

Thanks,
Jim
