this will create a directory in your current working directory and unpack the tarball there.

I believe you need to drop the second parameter on your untar command. Just put the file name of the tar file after the zxvf options.
Sorry, I have not explained clear in my first posting of this subject.
I want to untar and paste all files to the same folder/directory
/home/satimis/evolution/local/
as I created the tarball with full path (same path)
I can untar the tarball but not as my desire
Thanks
B.Regards Stephen

Hi all folks,
Ximian Evolution 1.4 ==================== I created a tarball on RH8.0 with following steps
1) # mkdir /home/satimis/Temp-1 2) # tar zcvf /home/satimis/Temp-1/backup_local.tar.gz /home/satimis/evolution/local/
Burnt the tarball with Xcdroat and untared it to Ximian Evolution 1.4 (same version) but running on RH9.0 with following results
1) # tar zxvf /mnt/cdrom/backup_local.tar.gz /home/satimis/evolution/local/ tar: /home/satimis/evolution/local: Not found in archive
2) # tar zxvf /mnt/cdrom/backup_local.tar.gz /home/satimis/evolution/ tar: /home/satimis/evolution: Not found in archive tar: Error exit delayed from previous errors
Kindly advise what mistake I have committed. Or the tarball must be untared to the same version of RedHat.
Thanks in advance.
