I D/L'd UNRAR 3.20 (Wins) and get corrupt headers with it, too, so it must be a
bad archive (and the 1st I can remember in a very long time). The latest
available UNRar for DOS is 3.13 (though it displays 3.10) and it does the same.

I'm not sure I can upgrade DOS Rar itself (though I just did to 3.20) since the
online license says 40-day Demo/Shareware only. Is there a PD/Free flavor of
Rar (?). The latest Linux version of UNRar is broke for me since it requires a
library I can't find and don't have: libstdc++-libc6.2-2.so.3 .

Seems like a losing battle here ...

Maybe Zips would be better since everyone can handle those? The Zip you sent
worked great, and Nut is running under Linux. Thanks again, it's a very handy
program to have around. I even went to the Home Page and grabbed the DOS
version so I can run it anywhere. :)  very cool 

Be well,
