It doesn't look like it. The error message is telling you that MSDOS can't use compressed or remote archives. Windows NT is similar to MSDOS in this respect, I would think. You might try running GNU tar on a Linux kernel; it's a far friendlier platform. _______________________________________________ Bug-tar mailing list [email protected] http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/bug-tar
