I have unzip on the server so used winzip to create multi part files, uploaded to server, logged in and used command.....

unzip filename.zip

the following was received....


[****.net@*****]$ unzip robbie.zip
Archive: robbie.zip
warning [robbie.zip]: zipfile claims to be last disk of a multi-part archive;
attempting to process anyway, assuming all parts have been concatenated
together in order. Expect "errors" and warnings...true multi-part support
doesn't exist yet (coming soon).
file #1: bad zipfile offset (local header sig): 4
[***.net@****]$

I made this archive on my windows xp machine and then uploaded to my host which I am sure in unix/linux, will it be easier or better using another format rather than zip/rar as I dont seem to be having any luck with this?
