Re: archive corrupted !



Ah ok, i think this is a misunderstanding...

The your archive file home-20-06-2007-05-55.tar.gz  is corrupt, not a
single file in it.
"unexpected end of file" means that gzip cannot handle the zip file
correctly, not a file in it called "file". Gzip is a stream compression,
it doesn't know anything about the format of the file it (de)compresses.
Maybe you can extract parts of your file using gzip -d -c  | tar  x.
