I saw a few posts on this, however, I am getting an error and don't see this particular issue. Not right off anyways....
We moved from digital OS to solaris 9 in Jan.
On the old platform, I could gzip my files, ftp them to my win2000 desktop via hummingbird and then unzip them to view.
Now, I get the meta characters in the file when I go to view them.
I have tried compress, gzip, zip. Nothing gives me a clean file on the win2000 side.
These files are pulled up to view by a non-unix knowledgeable person so they need to be in a format that can easily be openned from the win2000 side.
help.
