[Ti] decompressing a file while its on a server - slightly off topic :-)

[T Molnar]

Thanks Chris,

I gave it a try through terminal and the connect to server dialogue 
box,  but my host key verification failed :-(
First the ssh protocol 1 wasn't accepted by the server, then when I 
changed it to protocol 2
  the server responded and warned me my host key had been altered.  And 
so exited my request.

The terminal and server connections are something I haven't dealt with 
before.
Can you point me to more information on this?

Would information be in the help manual accessible through the Terminal?

thanks again,
tim
