Joseph,
Most of these tools will not like the \r\n combination as they are ports
from the friendly UNIX world. You must have your directories mounted as
text=binary. You must use the cygnus supplied gzip and tar programs to
unzip the file sets. There has been much discussion about text=binary
on the list, please check the mail archives pointer below.
Let me point you to:
