Hi Kenneth,
First off are you sure that you are restoring a tar file.
Second try using amrecover. It's an interactive ftp like utility
that is very usefull for restoring a single directory or file.

I'm trying to restore a directory on one of our servers. First, I
want the directory to reside in a temporary location before I move it
to its original location. I ran the following command in the temp
location:
amrestore /dev/nst0 <hostname> /.1/shares
Now I have a file in my temp directory named
<hostname>._.1_shares.20030206.0. I've tried to tar it to expand the
contents but the server just sits there, even when running tar
overnight. I used:
tar xvpS <hostname>._.1_shares.20030206.0
What am I doing wrong? I need to be able to pull a certain directory
out and trash the rest. Any help will be appreciated.
