Thanks for the info Andy.
Can you tell me where that is documented - I can't find it.
I don't get this - the same error 2 occurs even if I use * or *.* or just
a directory name. The tar manual suggests those are all valid so I dont
know how it can think the file isnt there... stwange .....vewy stwange...
This is bound to be a permissions thing somehow ... you're both right I
expect... I just can't find the blockage.
