Actually I don't' think this will work. tar cannot be used as a pure filter. Try this tar -cf - FILE | gzip -c | uudencode file.tgz | mail ..... or even tar -czf - FILE | uudencode file.tgz | mail ..... (I don't have a Linux box handy to test this, but it looks about right :-). ) Regards, Alec -- Alec Clews, <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>, PGP keyid:48FA EB81 TCA Synergo Ltd Tel. 44-(0)171-415-8159 Fax:44-(0)171-556-0022 New CIty Court, 20 St Thomas Street, London, Britain, SE1 9SD ====================== Usual Disclaimers Apply ===================== Personal and PGP key http://www.earth.demon.co.uk/alec > -- TO UNSUBSCRIBE FROM THIS MAILING LIST: e-mail the word "unsubscribe" to [EMAIL PROTECTED] .
