I have been struggling with an older file fro a couple hours now,
and I think it's time to "ask the net".

I ftp'ed the file ddos.tar.Z from f.ms.uky.edu (yes, I used binary
transfer).  On my unix site I was able to uncompress the thing
to the resulting file ddos.tar and eventually un-tarred it using 
tar -xf ddos.tar

which resulted in a directory ddos and four files: ddos1 ddos2
ddos3 and ddos4.


Okay, now I have downloaded the four files to my GS at home. The files
are in binary format, but upon viewing them they seem to be some sort
of self extracting thingie.  THis is what it looks like:

Please excuse the formatting, it seems my vi editor isn't quite
wide enough.

Anyway, I cannot figure out what to do to extract this file on
my GS.  Brunning it tells me "Buffers Not Available".

Help, what am I supposed to do??  (I suspect it may be a DOS 3.3
program and not ProDOS.  Am I correct?)
