Well I extracted both of the archives and no errors occurred, except for a few files in the archived MakeCD drawer which said something like the file could not be created or found or something. Not really a problem as I can just reinstall it. I'm starting to move stuff in to their right locations and haven't found any duff files yet so I suppose it's ok :-)

Thanks for the help

If you have the space on your amiga HD, I would suggest using ABackup from Aminet.  It is shareware, but there are no limitations on the demo version.  From there you can create an archive of your amiga and save it as a single file that you can then FTP to your mac.  That's how I do it and it works great.  

At least on the latest version of lha, the docs states that archiving more than 2GB will "confuse" lha.  And I'm pretty certain that SMB cannot handle files larger than 2GB anyway.
