Hoping someone on the list can help with this. I need to ftp the Linux MC
engine up onto a clients server, and I can't unstuff it! I can untar it, but
it is the GNU Zip format that is causing me the problem.

I am working on a Mac, and if I unstuff the downloaded Linux distribution
with Stuffit Expander and then ftp it the file gets corrupted. I've had this
headache before, and I am sure someone else is likely to in the future, so
an answer posted to the list should be useful reference for everyone.

I guess I need to know how:

    1) To unstuff the distribution properly on the Mac

    2) Better - know how to use Telnet to see if I can unzip the file on the
server.

The latter I am sure is straight forward particularly with the included
shell scripts,  but I guess this is dependent on the machine the other end
having the right application to unzip it, and my knowing the path?

Any pointers? Scott, would it be a useful idea to include a simple .tar
version of the distribution on your ftp site?
