Approx same pb, all files not copied. I'll try again from new OS X Install later. Anyone got this problem too?

I had the bompath problem and tried to do the "tar -xvf filename" command but it didn't work just gave me a bunch of errors and it kept giving me these errors until I forced it to …

Hmmm...Same problem....None of the posted methods worked....But after SU to root from a command line (and after tar -xvf + gnutar -zxvf) - the orginally unstuffed package decided t…

Ok...worked. But looks like you have to be logged in as ROOT - to get access OR install these tools.... Tj

Had the same problem. The easiest way to solve this is just to use MacOS9 with its Stuffit Expander to unstuff the downloaded file and then it will work. There must be something w…

I logged in as root. I downloaded the image with OmniWeb (because Omni leaves the file untouched after download). It is a .tgz file. I cd to the download directory, confirmed its …

Gametes: Try installing as root (ie, log in as root, then use Installer.app). I had the same problem 'till I tried that. Then it worked. All's well that ends well. :-) -------…

This worked for me (as root): 1. Download the disk image (downloaded as: 4.7.19.DownloadSoftware.1.1) 2. Double-Click this file and StuffIt will expand it to 4.7.19.DownloadSo…

This may sound crazy, but it works... If you still have OS 9 on your computer, reboot into it and decompress the file in OS 9. I have an iBook with 9.0.4 and OS X installed in th…

tar (short for "Tape ARchive") is an old Unix-based archiving format. Stuffit Expander can't do much with these for the moment. What you need to do is drop to a terminal, go to th…

Here's the interesting thing... I'm downloading the disk image under OS9 at work because of faster connection. The file I download has the name '5.7.19.DownloadSoftware.1 2.1' Shou…

It doesn't have to end with .tar, just put it on the MacOS X HD and do the gnutar command mentioned above and it will untar just fine. /Gabbe

This post is better suited for the support forum

I haven't tried this myself, but take a look at this helpful MacAddict article: http://www.macaddict.com/content/news/2000/09/13/18709

As I remember there were to halves of the download or the "cd-rom" download. The 2 combined equal the CD-rom as I remember ------------------ Henry Feldman NYU School of Medicine

They are supported and exist. I have wrote a few projects using them... however I installed them from the developer tools cd. As I am sitting infront of a linux box right now I can…

get the source from cyclic.com and compile it w/ the server option. You may need --without-krb5 --without-gssapi for configure

I am about 90% sure that the CVS server is built in. The CVS client is definitely there (/usr/bin/cvs) and if I remember correctly the client acts as the server if you tell it to.…

Never heard of Perforce, but CVS is great. We used it at my previous job. You can even do CVS checkouts over SSH using private keys and ssh-agents to keep it simple. UNIX is so …

I can verify that it is possible to use the built-in CVS as a server on Mac OS X. It's a bit odd to set up, but it's definitely do-able.

Well, if you look at the configure options when building CVS, you can build a binary w/o the server portion. Since the Mac man pages make no reference to that, I *assumed* that th…

The server is definitely there. Wade
