Received the following error using tar on Solaris
tar: ././@LongLink: typeflag 'L' not recognized, converting to regular file
The solution is to use gtar instead of tar
/usr/sfw/bin/gtar
tar: ././@LongLink: typeflag 'L' not recognized, converting to regular file

This was a quick to find and easy to use solution for me. I did have to preface the gtar with the path, as it was not pathed in my environment and it is working like a charm. Thanks!
