Since you are behind a firewall, make sure that you have set 'proxy.host', 'proxy.port', and 'proxy.use' in your "build.properties" file. They are commented out in the "build.properties.default" file.
At a guess, the wall you are hitting first is due to using a version of Jakarta-Ant < 1.5. You need to use at least 1.5 to build TC 5.

If you can provide your comment or point me to resource, I would appreciate it. Thanks. Steve 1. I followed the instructions in BUILDING.TXT, almost exactly - the Xerces2.2.1 I am using does not have xalan.jar, so I used the same file from Xalan2.4.1. 2. I got the following error after running ant: Buildfile: build.xml check.source: get.source: check.out: BUILD FAILED Build.xml:67: the <cvs> task doesn't support the 'compression' attribute. 3. I am running behind corporate firewall. --------------------------------- Do you Yahoo!? Yahoo!
