file on the server

Hello,

I have downloaded a file tar.gz using wget in the root access. I don't know where the file is saved... How to find it quickly?

[mcavic]

find / -name file.tar.gz -print

Many thanks!

I found it but when I make mc I don't see it in /root/ where has told me that it is.

It is invisible? How to unpack tar.gz?

You should be able to see it by doing
ls -al /root/file.tar.gz

To unpack it:

gunzip file.tar.gz
tar xvf file.tar

But you might want to move it to an empty directory first.
