The command zip is not an AIX supplied command by default. You could use compress or install a GNU or other zip tool. There may be some on the other install media you received initially.

What are you planning to do with the file? WinZip will recognise a compressed tar file built like this:-
Can you tell us more about the purpose of creating these files and what you plan to do with them, now or later?

Thank you !!! (2 Replies)
