Re: tar problem
Failing that, use 'cpio' with the '-H tar' format (I think 'tar' encoding is hp-ux happy.. failing that try 'hpodc', and use cpio to extract it again).

Re: tar problem
Assuming that your Linux 'tar' archive is extractable on your Linux server, you could try using HP-UX 'pax' to extract it on your HP platform.
# cd destdir && pax -rv < scripts.tar

Re: tar problem
> trying to extract it in HP-UX [...]
And how did you get the file from the Linux
system to the HP-UX system? ASCII FTP?
Can you do a "tar tvf scripts.tar" on the
Linux system? If you transfer the file back
to the Linux system, does that still work on
the copy?
Posting the same question to two forums
without any links is not the best practice.
