here is the error message i get when I want to do tar command : # tar -zxvf blaxton.ca-20040908_103234.tar.tgz
gzip: stdin: not in gzip format tar: Child returned status 1 tar: Error exit delayed from previous errors
gzip also can not understand the file , here is the error message :
gzip: blaxton.ca-20040908_103234.tar.tgz already has .tgz suffix -- unchanged
i dont know if I can send the file or not , I am going to send through another email ,

What the hell is .tgz ? I can not open it at all ,we have a software that generate this kind of ziped tar ball , but i can not open it with tar or gzip .
.tgz is the same as .tar.gz - so "tar xzvf foo.tgz" should work. General hint: "file foo" normally gives you good information about a file.
