## Unpack the OpenACS tarball

The OpenACS tarball contains sample configuration files for some of the packages listed below. In order to access those files, unpack the tarball now.

    [root root]# cd /tmp
    [root tmp]# tar xzf openacs-5.7.0.tgz
    cd /tmp
    tar xzf openacs-5.7.0.tgz

If you are installing from a different method and just need the configuration files, you can instead get them from CVS:

    [root root]# cd /tmp
    [root tmp]# cvs -d :pserver:anonymous@cvs.openacs.org:/cvsroot co openacs-4/packages/acs-core-docs/www/files/
    cvs checkout: warning: failed to open /root/.cvspass for reading: No such file or directory
    cvs server: Updating openacs-4/packages/acs-core-docs/www/files
    U openacs-4/packages/acs-core-docs/www/files/README.TXT
    (many lines omitted)
    U openacs-4/packages/acs-core-docs/www/files/template-ini.ini
    U openacs-4/packages/acs-core-docs/www/files/winnsd.txt
    [root tmp]# mv openacs-4 openacs-5.7.0
    cd /tmp
    cvs -d :pserver:anonymous@cvs.openacs.org:/cvsroot co openacs-4/packages/acs-core-docs/www/files/
    mv openacs-4 openacs-5.0.0a4
