splunk app for Unix and Linux download

When I try to download the splunk app for unix and linux, all I get is the unix.spl flash file. Is there any way to directly ftp the unix.tar.gz file? I plan to install this on an indexer running RHEL 6.1 under vmware.

An .spl file is just a gzip'd compressed file which is ready for install via the Splunk GUI.

You can uncompress it by

mv unix.spl unix.spl.gz

gunzip unix.spl.gz
