gzip/gunzip problems

[Kevin A Smith <kas@lucent.com>]

After (ftp) downloading a .gz file and running gunzip on it I get the error:

invalid compressed data--crc error

Now the same file was (ftp) downloaded onto a Solaris box next to this one

with the same options (binary etc.) and gunzip runs just fine. Both

boxes are running version 1.2.4 of gunzip.

I tried ftp'ing the file from the Solaris box to the Linux box too

just for good measure...but same error message.

Help :)
