when i try to uncompress the archive i get a message "can't change ownership to uid 72, gid 22" for each file in the archive. I tried using chmod u+s and chmod g+s but I was denied permission even though I was root. Can anyone help me out with this one.
The dirty solution would be to create a user and a group with that user in it with uid 72 and gid 22. I don't know why it can't unpack it without having those in existance. It should and just list 72.22 as its owner.group.
