We sometimes receive source tapes written in this format on BSD 4.3 machines, "tar" like to return the error "directory checksum error" at this point tar bombs out. Is there a utility available which would allow me to read such tapes? I was able to extract some data from this tape (4 Meg from 15 Meg). If so please direct me to such source - any mail should be forwarded to: manager@marque -- Steven M.
