mkdir /root/tmp

cd /root/tmp

tar jxvf /home/user/MyDocs/.documents/OPEN-ROX6.tar.bz2
I have becomeroot installed so I type sudo gainroot to enable a root shell. When I try to open a shell with the sudo su - command it asks for a password and I do not remember setting one up. However after I have root access I try to extract with above command and the output is always 'Permission Denied'. The same occurs when I do it under the directory /root/temp.
