[Message part 1 (text/plain, inline)]

Hello,

When running this command:

[cid:image001.jpg <at> 01D7CC13.C08F2310]

Putty crashes on me.  I get this:


[cid:image002.jpg <at> 01D7CC13.C08F2310]


Is there a way around this?

Sure, don't use 'gzip -c -f' to the terminal. There's no reason to do 
that (other than maybe you want to crash your terminal :-).

Thank you for the update.  I definitely do not want to crash putty.  Is there a way to zip up all of the files that I am trying to zip up outside of using gzip?

That depends on exactly what you're trying to do. Maybe something like this:

find /var/log/pb/eventlog ! -name '*.gz' -mtime +60 -print0 |
 tar --null -T- -czf somefile.tgz

but you'll need to read the 'find' and 'tar' documentation to see 
exactly what you want.
