What version of Irix are you using? With Irix 5.3 on our SGI Onyx here it
works fine (using gunzip version 1.2.4 (quite an old one) and the standard
Irix tar):
+ gunzip ogftp10bl.tar.gz
+ tar xvf ogftp10bl.tar
x Makefile, 433 bytes, 1 block
x README, 2467 bytes, 5 blocks
x ogftp.c, 4841 bytes, 10 blocks
x reply.c, 599 bytes, 2 blocks
x reply.h, 469 bytes, 1 block
x transfer.c, 7968 bytes, 16 blocks
x transfer.h, 515 bytes, 2 blocks
+ ls
Makefile ogftp.c reply.c transfer.c
README ogftp10bl.tar reply.h transfer.h
+
Sorry I can't be more helpful. If anyone on the list knows what the problem
is liable to be could they please let me know and I'll repack the archive.
