Thanks for the info on tn3270. I ftp'ed the tar file, but when I try and untar it I get => $ tar -xvf tn3270.tar.Z wow tar: directory checksum error (0 != -2315) I've looked at the man page for tar, what am I doing wrong? I've tried about every combination tar -x, tar -xbfv, tar -xfv..... I don't get much out of the error message :( HELP!!! austin@meto.umd.edu -------------------------------------------------------------------- You need to uncompress the file using BSD's uncompress command. Then you can tar the file.
