    Hi all,
               Can anyone help with this :-

    RH 6.1 > AX25 > DXSpider 1.48 Automatic backups are made regularly
    and these backups can be viewed using Midnight Commander and are OK.

    Ftp these to a Win95 machine (16 bit) successfully. To test , copied one to
    a floppy , copied it from floppy to a spare directory on the Linux box ,
    tried to view with Midnight commander and got "Couldn't open tar archive
    packet.tar.gz#ugz" The error shown on the bottom of the (now) crashed
    midnight commander says "gzip : invalid compressed data : crc error"

    Don't know where the #ugz came from. It doesn't show up on the file in the
    directory listing. Just WHAT DO I have to do to get a safely remote backup
    file without this corruption please !
