I've done this a couple of times and I can only suggest that you extract the contents 
of some of the
.TBZ files and see how the likes of named does it.

You will need BZIP2 to extract the tar file from the .TBZ.

Making the .tbz - a few tips ...

1. extract the original one under UNIX to preserve the atributes/permissions - it wont 
work if you
do it under DOS/WIN

2. The .TBZ files are processed in alphabetic order (or so it seems) so call yours 
z----.tbz so it
gets loaded last - important if you are replacing any standard files.

3. Look at what John does for TJ and the other one (name escapes me) - he uses SNARF 
and you may be
able to do the same.
