1. "cd" to the freetds directory, to the top of the tree where you
ftp'd the files.
2. "rm -r" or "rm -R" should delete the files and directories from
there down.
At this point I recommend you change the owner of the directory to a
non-root user, and su to that username. If "rm -r" as root doesn't scare
you, it will one day. :)
3. ftp freetds-0.53.tgz to the freetds directory (binary transfer
mode).
4. "tar xzf freetds-0.53.tgz" will unzip and detar the archive, leaving
you with a new tree (probably a little different from your first one).
Then you'll be OK, methinks.
If your tar doesn't accept the "z" switch, you can unzip the archive with
"gunzip freetds-0.53.tgz", and then "tar xf freetds-0.53.tar" (or whatever
the unzipped name is). Also, some tars need a dash before their switches.
