Mac dot underscore (._) or AppleDot problem

http://www.litfuel.net/plush/?postid=147

"So it seems OSX likes to add ._ (dot-underscore or AppleDot) copies of files when transferring files between operating systems."

Seems to be a finder issue
from the bash: export COPY_EXTENDED_ATTRIBUTES_DISABLE =true You could also try ftp/scp before you tar the files (since it's the tar itself that creates the resource forks).
