I assumed it was a bad .gz file on the Samba site. The problem was that I
FTPd the file through a browser. When I FTPd using an FTP client, it
gunziped fine. Apparently the browser caused some type of problem.

Original Post below:
I just upgraded to Solaris 8, and downloaded the the following binary
package from www.samba.org:
samba-2.2.7-sol8-suncc-64bit.pkg.gz
When trying to gunzip it, here is my output:
/home/ccampbell # gunzip samba-2.2.7-sol8-suncc-64bit.pkg.gz
gunzip: samba-2.2.7-sol8-suncc-64bit.pkg.gz: not in gzip format
/home/ccampbell # file samba-2.2.7-sol8-suncc-64bit.pkg.gz
samba-2.2.7-sol8-suncc-64bit.pkg.gz: English text
Yes...I did FTP in binary mode. I'm used to Solaris 2.6 and tar.Z files,
not pkg.gz files.
