Sorry for making more traffic on the list, but I forgot my original mail
 in the summary. Here it is :


sorry for another simple question :

I want to restore only the home directory of an user, not his
subdirectories. I thought that -h was the right flag to do that, but it
doesn't work. With this flag I only get an empty directory.

Here my syntax :

rrestore -xhf teller:/dev/rmt0h geigle

I've tried several different orders of the parameters but all of them have
the same result.

what is the right syntax ?

thanks

and the summary again :

Perhaps the question was too simple or there is no good solution :

Thanks for the answers from :

Robert Schuhl <robert.schuhl_at_ald-vt.de>
Pirie Hart <pirie_at_u.washington.edu>
Peticolas, Anne <anne.peticolas_at_mail.va.gov>

They all told me to use the interactive restore.
That works with a selection of each file you want to restore or the other
way round ! That was'nt exactly what i wanted.

And beside this it extracts after a delete of the subdirectories these
subdirectories anyway, but doesn't fill it up with files (but empties the
existing ones). Good thing if you do the restore in the directory of the
user !

If there is another solution please let me know.

Thanks
