But no.  I looked at /mnt/cdrom1/bin/* and tried a `tar -tzf

In the tarfile, of course. ;-)

Try something like # cat /mnt/cdrom1/bin/* | tar -tzf -
for the contents. Change the 'f' to an 'x' and give the filename to
extract a particular file.

Minor correction- change the 't' to an 'x' t= test (will give index/list of files but not extract x= eXtract files....
