Using GNU tar on HP11.x
I am using GNU tar to untar a tar file created on NT, but ran into permission issue as follow:
/usr/local/bin/tar: Skipping to next header
/usr/local/bin/tar: Archive contains obsolescent base-64 headers
/usr/local/bin/tar: Skipping to next header
/usr/local/bin/tar: Skipping to next header
/usr/local/bin/tar: Skipping to next header
/usr/local/bin/tar: Skipping to next header
/usr/local/bin/tar: Skipping to next header
/usr/local/bin/tar: Error exit delayed from previous errors
I am using:
$ tar --version
tar (GNU tar) 1.13.25
Anyone seen this before? And how to fix it?
Thanks,
jw

Re: Using GNU tar on HP11.x
Did you check the GNU tar pages on portability issues?
For example: http://www.gnu.org/software/tar/manual/text/tar.txt

P.S.
probably not much help, but at least your message is on top again ;-)

Re: Using GNU tar on HP11.x
Maybe your archive is corrupt. Can you try the following:
- verify it is correct by opening it on NT.
- When you use ftp to transfer, use binary mode
HTH,
Robert

Re: Using GNU tar on HP11.x
Did you use GNU tar to create the file on the NT system?
If so, was it the same version of GNU tar on both NT and HP-UX systems?
If so, can you untar the same file on the NT box where it was created?
If so, and you used FTP to transfer the file from NT to HP-UX system, are you certain you used BINARY mode ftp transfer?
Just a few thoughts..

Re: Using GNU tar on HP11.x
Forgot to mention, I am using the same tar version
# /usr/local/bin/tar --version
tar (GNU tar) 1.13.25
on HP-UX 11.00 with no problems (except I have run into problems related to issues mentioned in my last post)..
