Are you trying to use the WSAD local editor/app server instance for development, or are you asking how to deploy to a WAS server?

I haven't ever just deployed a .war file to a local WSAD environment. Usually you are building from source code and running for testing, then exporting .war or .ear files for production deployment.

Since you aren't using the CVS source to build from, you could try extracting the jforum_xxx.war file, make a new project in WSAD, and import those files into the new project, then run from there. But I'm not completely sure that this will work as you want it to.

The other alternative is to use the CVS source files just as you would a real development project.
