Unfortuantely while that patch fixes the Archive::Tar tests, it seems to have broken the CPANPLUS tests, which I just found out last night.
Craig's alternative patch will work for VMS perl in ODS-2 mode only, which is the mode that Perl on VMS has traditionally been.
I do not yet have a solution that will work for ODS-2 and ODS-5 properly. regards, -John [EMAIL PROTECTED] Personal Opinion Only
