restore full path tar file to a new location

Hi All:

Dumb question of the day. Is there any way to extract a tar file with a full path and put it somewhere else?

Not with HP's tar, but, if I recall correctly from previous people asking about this, pax has an option to do this.

Sure, it's called the "mv" command.
