I don't know if its true for what you are doing or not, but it is known that tar-1.14 is broken as far as amanda's use is concerned. You need either 1.13-19, 1.13-25, or 1.15-1 to use it the way amanda uses it. The much older 1.13 (plain, no suffix) is also broken. -- Cheers, Gene "There are four boxes to be used in defense of liberty: soap, ballot, jury, and ammo.
