Hi All,
I am Vijeya
Aravindan working in India. I have a query regarding the GNU Tar.exe in
this e-mail and would very appreciate a response to this
e-mail.
We are using the
Tar.exe of the following license in one of our applications. We are using the
Tar.exe with the following license:
This
program is free software; you can redistribute it and/or modify it under the
terms of the GNU General Public License as published by the Free Software

PARTICULAR PURPOSE. See the GNU General Public License for more
details.
Documentation and Source code for
TAR are available at:
We are facing
problems when we have a file of greater than 2.0 GB in the directory which we
are trying to TAR. Hence, we use a method to split the file during the Tar
process into chunks of 1 GB and during the Extraction process, we join these
splitted files. We feel that this is not a very smooth
process.
Can you please let
us know if this has been fixed lately or any work around to over come this
issue?
Also please feel
free to forward this email to the respective mailer
aliases/folks.
Thank
you very much,
Vijeya
