Re: possible oops on ASN 10 and Perl-ldap .23

It appears that my Win98 and NT systems strip the .gz off the 
end of the file name.  On my Linux and Solaris systems it pulls
the file down with the proper file name.  In the passed I guess
I pulled down the files with linux and then moved them to
the Windows systems.

Something for the faq I guess.
