        Hello everyone,

     I had to reinstall FreeBSD to 2.2.7. Before doing the reinstall I
tar'ed the /home/user  dir. When trying to untar, it puts everything so that
it looks like this: /home/user/home/user

How can i untar it so it puts it back as /home/user. The user in question
already has the active account with the original user.tar.gz file in it.

 Thank you for your help,

lanny
