It will seem to work, it will go through the first file, looking for
the other filenames.  None of them will be found, so no files will be
extracted.

Try your first loop in the shell instead, Sean:

for file in *.tar
do
tar -xvf $file
done

(Most people will type in semicolons instead of newlines
interactively.)

Regarding your dial up connection, Sean, try "linuxconf" as root.  Not
sure how functional it was back in good old Red Hat 5.2, though. :-)
