    Cool Smartfoxserver install help?

    Okay so I bought a brand new Linux ubuntu VPS from Hostgator and I connected just fine and logged in just fine and then when I went to go and install Smartfoxserver and I typed in:
    Code:
    wget http://www.smartfoxserver.com/download/SFSPRO_linux_1.6.6.tar.gz
    and it installed just fine and then I went to go see how Smartfox says to install it and they say:
    Code:
    1. open a terminal window and move to the folder where you have downloaded the file.
    2. type "gzip -d filename.tar.gz" to extract the .tar file (where "filename" is the name of the downloaded file) 
    3. type "tar xf filename.tar" to extract the files.
    4. move inside the uncompressed folder and type ./install
    then I typed in
    Code:
     gzip -d SFSPRO_1.6.6.tar.gz
    and then it said:
    Code:
    gzip: SFSPRO_linux_1.6.6.tar.gz: No such file or directory
    Am I doing something wrong? Or whats wrong

    Any help would be awesome!
    Thanks

    You don't really need to do all that in the terminal. Just right click the file "SFSPRO_linux_1.6.6.tar.gz" and select "Extract Here". Then open the extracted folder and double click "install" and select "Run in Terminal"

    http://www.dotdeb.com is a great place to find deb packages
