option 1: change to a user who does have permission option 2: install tomcat somewhere your user has permission (see below) option 3: read a linux manual* it sounds alarmingly like you've installed an RPM or distribution of some sort. we generally don't recommend that, instead get a freshly built, up to date release from tomcat.apache.org and unpack it in a suitable directory. p * if you screwed a distribution by changing a permission on a dir I'd be surprised, but then if you did that you ought to be doing a lot more reading before you try again... > Chris > > > > > > ____________________________________________________________________________________ > Moody friends.
