    I am building a RH 9 box and transferring the /home directory over by first
    tar'ing up, then ftp to new box, then extract the tar. I have already made
    the mods to passwd & group files to make all the users current on the new
    box.

    Problem is when I extract the tar everything comes out fine except when I do
    a ls -la directory listing the owner name colume is not truncated to column
    width and the whole directory listing looks out of wack.

    Any suggestions.

    Thanks.
