Multiple files

I just used tar and gpg to encrypt the file as shown earlier, and it decrypted 
fine, but when I went to untar it, I got this error:

backup/temp/
backup/temp/misc/
backup/temp/misc/autprint.mrk
tar: Skipping to next header
tar: Archive contains obsolescent base-64 headers
tar: Error exit delayed from previous errors

This is version 1.4.0 on FreeBSD 4.11. It only decrypts the first tiny bit of 
the decrypted tar archive. It also repeated the exact same error messages 
when I ran "gpg -r root  --encrypt-files -sta b.tar" and then after 
decrypting I run  "tar xvf b.tar." My OpenBSD installation is hosed right now 
so I can't try repeating this on another platform. 

Any ideas? TIA,
Eric Buchanan
