BackupPC_tarExtact is unhappy about the tar file delivered by the
command you have used.

What is the remote machine type and tar version?

What happens when you run:

    su backuppc
    /usr/bin/ssh -q -x -n -l root ehl01 /bin/tar -c -f - -C /home --totals . | 
tar -tvf -

I'd like to see the tar output.  Could you try running this on a small
directory that still fails, and send me the entire tar file off list?

    /usr/bin/ssh -q -x -n -l root ehl01 /bin/tar -c -f - -C /home --totals . > 
tar.out

...or run it on the original /home, and use dd or similar to send me
just the first 1MB or so.
