Thanks Derick, but I tried this but with no luck :- tar hcf 2004_03_08_01.v3.tar /home/virtual/site6/fst/home/webmaster/mainwebsite_html/var
i then dumped the contents to a file tar tvf 2004_03_08_01.v3.tar > 2004_03_08_01.v2.tar.gz.txt
had a look for a file that I know is causing me trouble grep woodsnick.jpg 2004_03_08_01.v2.tar.gz.txt
and it still says its a link not a file -rw-rw-rw- apache/apache 0 2004-03-08 13:42:29 home/virtual/site6/fst/home/webmaster/mainwebsite_html/var/plain/storage/images/club_members/woods_nick/196-4-eng-GB/woodsnick.jpg <b>link to</b> /home/virtual/site6/fst/home/webmaster/mainwebsite_html/var/plain/storage/images/club_members/nick_woods/196-2-eng-GB/nick_woods.jpg The strange thing is that if i do 'ls -l' in the original directory the files that tar says are linked (ie home/virtual/site6/fst/home/webmaster/mainwebsite_html/var/plain/storage/images/club_members/woods_nick/196-4-eng-GB/woodsnick.jpg )they just show up as normal files (no 'l' or 'linked to') , and if I download one with smartftp (windows prog) it downloads the original file, yet tar stores them as files and winzip just ignores them do you have any ideas what might be causing this ?
