I wonder if we should be actually not using >100 char path names though to be even more compatible. There are multiple issues at hand (one being a bug in Sun's tar implementation that gnu-tar refuses to cave to since it's a bug. GNU software drives me nuts much of the time since they actually decrease portability). I also think our tools use far too much memory and we need to strip out features from our tools till we fall below the 640k recommended by Bill Gates. -- Wes Hardaker Sparta, Inc. ------------------------------------------------------- This SF.net email is sponsored by: Splunk Inc.
