Hi,
I ftpd "binary" mode into a AIX server and transferred .tar.tar files.
When i untar using "tar -xvf <filename>.tar.gz"
It shows "tar: 0511-169 A directory checksum error on media; 0 not equal to 70568."
Please Help!!
Use gunzip first to unzip them then try to untar them.
Thanks a ton...:o It works!!!!
You can always pipe the two commands to make life easier for yourself as well.
gunzip -c filename.tar.gz | tar -xvf -
