Re: Unix Tape on AS/400

[Patrick Townsend <townsend@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

I would try using OVRTAPF to specify no labels and use CPYFRMTAPF to get
it into an AS/400 flat file. Then FTP'ing in binary mode to your PC with
a .tar extension. Then I think you will find that winzip can unzip the
tar file. Good luck!
