Hi, My application automatically untars files submitted to a ftp directory. I am using the command "tar -zxf" to untar. The problem I am facing is, the tar command some time prompt for user input tar : Ready for volume 2
As my application don't have any human interaction to type in "go", the application can't proceed. Any idea how to avoid this prompt?
