You should not use tar! You said you had the file: /root/communicator-v45-export.x86-unknown-linux2.0.tar.gz You need to copy this over to the /tmp directory, ie do cp /root/communicator-v45-export.x86-unknown-linux2.0.tar.gz /tmp Then you need to get hold of the netscape4 package from debian and put it somewhere - it will be called something like "netscape4_4.0-12.deb". Suppose you put it in /root. Then to install netscape you would do dpkg --install /root/netscape4_4.0-12.deb This would automatically look in the /tmp directory, find the communicator file, and install it nicely for you. At least I think this is correct.
