On windows I am using the <tar> and <gzip> tasks to archive my Web site.
I then use the <ftp> task to transfer the website.tar.gz file to a remote
Unix server.
I then use the <telnet> task to logon on to the Unix server and after change
to root etc. I unzip the file using gunzip website.tar.gz (within <telnet>),
the I use tar xvf ${remote_stage_dir}/website.tar (still within the <telnet>
task).
The problem is that the result or the tar xvf command unpacks all the files
within the subfolders of the archive, but not the top level files.
If go to the Unix server directly and use the same tar command on the same
file it unpacks all the files correctly, so the ant script is capturing all
the files in the <tar> task.
I also followed the same steps manually by using the telnet program on
windows, and that unpacked the files correctly.
I can only surmise that the <telnet> task in ant is having some effect on
the tar xvf ${remote_stage_dir}/website.tar command. BTW,
${remote_stage_dir}/ expands properly.
If anyone has any ideas please, reply!
Below is my code:

<!-- Create a TAR file of the web site-->
<tar tarfile="${dist}/website.tar" basedir="${web_site}"

MP*" />
<!-- Archive the TAR file to a GZIP file -->
<gzip zipfile="${dist}/website.tar.gz" src="${dist}/website.tar"/>
</target>
<target name="deployWebsite" depends="packageWebsite"
