I can't see any directories within my /6.170/psets/ps6/tigerdb/ directory.
Nor can I find the directory that the problem set refers to:

"We have provided a collection of directories holding Tiger Databases for you to use, which are located on the 6.170 locker in the /mit/6.170/tigerdb/ directory"

Yet I think they must be there since I can run the staff given SpecificationsTests.

Don't know if this helps but you can see the DBs at http://web.mit.edu/6.170/tigerdb/

This directory only exists on athena (although you can download the files from Athena too).

I was refering to when I work on athena.

When I try to go into the directory /6.170/tigerdb i get an error saying no such directory exists

athena%        cd 6.170
athena% ls
cvsroot   psets     returnin  scratch
athena% cd tigerdb
tigerdb: No such file or directory.
athena% cd tiger
tiger: No such file or directory.


athena% cd psets
athena% cd ps6
athena% cd tigerdb
athena% cd tiny
tiny: No such file or directory.
athena% cd small
small: No such file or directory.

Also, I have updated from psets directory, but not from 6.170 directory, when i try to i get the error:

athena% cvs update
cvs update: No CVSROOT specified!  Please use the `-d' option
cvs [update aborted]: or set the CVSROOT environment variable.

where can i download the directories?

It's /mit/6.170/tigerdb (i.e. you don't need to check it out from cvs)

(fyi, cd 6.170, assuming you were in your home directory, goes to /mit/wrightc/6.170, aka ~/6.170)
