jigadm problems

I'm a newcomer to Jigsaw and having some problems getting past that first hill
in the learning curve. I've installed JDK 1.1.6 and Jigsaw 2.0beta2 on SPARC
Solaris 2.6.

1. jigadm bombs when I try to change the admin password. Click Root, realms,
JigAdmin, admin. Get exception:

java.lang.ArrayIndexOutOfBoundsException: 1

        at org.w3c.jigadm.gui.TreeListener$Initializer.run(Compiled Code)

So I left Jigsaw running on the SPARC and started up JigAdmin on Windows 95
giving it the URL of the SPARC, and it doesn't have this problem there.

2. Trying to figure out how to configure a directory to allow Netscape
Composer to publish new documents there. The Jigsaw documentation refers to
a resource PutableDirectory, but there is no such thing in the code. Is there
a way to tell whether something like this was a 1.0 feature since removed, or
a future feature not yet implemented?

3. The FAQ says Jigsaw has been compiled to support servlets, but then it goes
on to tell you to change things and recompile. Huh?

Okay, it's beta. Is there any documentation more step-by-step?
