[SLUG] Probems installing IMAP RPM.


Hi all,

I ftp'ed this file to a remote RedHat 6.2 "Bleeding Edge" server and tried
to RPM install the file and got this message. The file transfered OK as it
was in binary mode and file size is correct... but what the hell does it
mean??? corrupted?

[root@penguin gvieira]# rpm -i imap-4.7-5.i386.rpm 
warning: /etc/pam.d/imap saved as /etc/pam.d/imap.rpmorig
warning: /etc/pam.d/pop saved as /etc/pam.d/pop.rpmorig
unpacking of archive failed: cpio: Bad magic

thanks,
