I downloaded a file from the SysAdmin magazine ending in tar.Z. But I cannot unzip it with gunzip.
Can anyone tell me how to unzip the file?
Thanks

Hi Denis; The command you're looking for is "uncompress". Look in the man pages for all the info. One thing you'll need to know is that it sends the output to your screen. So you will need to do "uncompress file.Z | file.newname". Hope this helps!
