the file is a GNU - gzip file. the syntax is:

$gunzip /path_to_file/your_file_name

some versions of solaris will include the gzip package in the installation, if yours did not head to http://www.sunfreeware.com and d/l the gzip package for your version/arch - and don't worry it won't by gzipped! ;)
