	I can't seem to get (Esix) tar to extract archives created on
a Sun.  I tried tar xvbf 20 /dev/rmt/c0s0 and get "tar: blocksize = 0"
to stdout instead of the files in the directory I want.  It extracts
archives createdon my Esix system just fine, however.  I have a
Wangtek 5099 and an Everex ev833 controller.  Please email responses.
