May 3, 2001 #3 prv3116 MIS Mar 16, 2001 80 US The normal tar command doesn't have a -z option, at least mine doesn't. Is that an added feature from somewhere? This looks like just a zipped tar file. gunzip tar.gz (to unzip it) tar -xvf tar (to untar it) If you don't have gzip and gunzip, it can be downloaded as gnu.gzip from http://freeware.bull.net .
