Hi Jean Claude,

There's a difference, though.  gzip creates a GNU Zip file (.gz) and JAR
creates a PkZip (.ZIP) file.

Have you tried gzip using pipes for input and output?  That way, the
program isn't directly accessing the file, QShell is instead.

For example:
        gzip -c < inputfile.txt > outputfile.txt.gz

I don't knov if it'll solve the problem (we dont have any files that large
to test with) but it might be worth a try...

How did you solve it on the AIX side?  you can always use the AIX program
in PASE if all else fails...
