I am sorry if this is a FAQ, but I am having trouble getting files off of cica.cica. I wonder if I might be using too old a version of pkunzip. My copy came off of Genie a few months ago and says it is "pkunzip 1.1 3-15-90". If this version is okay, is there something I need to do different with ftp than I have done on any other system? I have tried downloading in both "bin" and "tenex" mode and I get the same errors. I first transfer the software via ftp to one of the local suns (A SPARCServer 390, I believe) and then to my home machine via kermit. (Yes, I use binary mode). I have done this to get software from other hosts and I don't have a problem. This is an example of the errors I usually get: --------------- PKUNZIP (R) FAST! Extract Utility Version 1.1 03-15-90 Copr. 1989-1990 PKWARE Inc. All Rights Reserved. PKUNZIP/h for help PKUNZIP Reg. U.S. Pat. and Tm. Off. Searching ZIP: FMSOUND.ZIP PKUNZIP: Warning!

I am just not sure what. The pkunzip version is my best guess. Thanks for any help, Margaret Myers myers@cs.ucsd.edu
