When I try to extract with
bar xZf /dev/rfd0
from an archive written by a different UID with
bar cZf /dev/rfd0 ...
I get error messages like:
sh:./foo/mumble can't create
I even tried
bar xsZf /dev/rfd0
to force it to apply my UID and GID to the extracted files, to no avail.
As an aside, the man file for bar describes options like 'e' that bar
itself doesn't like.
All this is on a SS1+GX, builtin floppy and hard-disk, SunOS 4.1. Any
clues anyone?
