As you can tell from this question, I am a newbie.  Anyway, I'm trying to
find the correct command to extract
/usr/home/tomlinson_dr/download/dynip_3.00.tar to the same directory.  The
command I'm using is a follows:

tar x dynip_3.00.tar
tar: can't open /dev/rsa0 : Device not configured

I've read the man page and know that /dev/rsa0 is the default device but I
can't understand how to tell it that I want to use this tarball on my hard
drive.  I tried searching the archives but they are offline at the moment.

Thanks for your help!

Drew
