extract from tar backup

create path
You can create the same path on the new box, /Accounts/2001/10/26. Untar the tarball, in this directory.
Then use "cp -r" to move recursively from there to where you really want it to go. Actually one way to do this is:
"cp -r sourcedir targetdir && rm -rf sourcedir"
Read "man cp" for more details.
