Subject: un-tar'ing not working for me

>What obvious error I'm I making using tar?

It's a gzipped tar file. I would use this to extract the contents:

tar -zxvf openssl-0.9.7c.tar.gz.tar

To be really sure, use this first:

tar -ztvf openssl-0.9.7c.tar.gz.tar

To ensure there are no errors with the tar file.

Even if you win the rat race, that will still only make you a rat.
