You want to create a compressed backup of the users' home
directories. What utility should you use?
Answer Posted / ravi
The TAR utility is not used for compressing as told by Mr
Sudeep.It's primary purpose is to bring together all the
required files into one location and it has the extension
".tar".In order to compress this archieve we use tools like
gzip,bzip . Any archieve compressed with gzip has the
extension ".tar.qz".
