Two issues here: The easy one is the rename. That's part of the UNPACKP
script upon some sort of abort. No problem with it. It's the second
issue that needs addressing.

UNPACKP calls the MOVER program to unpack the truck file (something
similar to UUDECODE). Unfortunately, there is a problem with the version
of MOVER you have, though the latest, greatest should be on the 5.5 FOS.
The unrecognized token error shows an error in the MOVER parser. To fix
this, you need to get the latest working version of MOVER from
http://jazz.external.hp.com/src/ryder/index.html

Be sure to follow the instructions carefully - ftp with binary and be
sure to change the file code to nmprg.
