I am borrowing a friend's 030 Cube running 2.0, and recently grabbed several
files from a few anon ftp sites.  I transferred the files in binary mode onto
an OD, and they uncompress fine.  However, they won't untar.  I keep getting
directory checksum errors.  Is there some problem with the 2.0 tar?  I
don't think the files got corrupted anywhere along the way, because they
all uncompressed fine.   Any ideas?????
