Sorry -- I'm new to the unix world . . .
I'm attempting to untar the 8.1.7.2 patchset.  I do not have space to place
the patchset and the resultant files on the same mountpoint.  I'm trying to
place the files in the patches/8.1.7.2 directory.  

I ftp'd the zip file (p1882450_8172_SOLARIS.zip) which I unzipped, which
gave me a tarfile. I've attempted this:

  $ tar xvf 8172_solaris_32_patchset.tar -C
/oracle/app/oracle/product/8.1.7/patches/8.1.7.2

which does nothing.  (comes back to the $ prompt in a few seconds, doesn't
give me squat)

Any help for a poor, wayward non-unixer??
Thanks for any help!

Barb
