I would expect to give the filename as either
../local/bin/filesystem_file_name or
local/bin/filesystem_file_name

I'm not sure that 'r' is correct for restoring a single file. You might
want to use 'x' instead.

Also, I might try to do the ufsrestore interactively...

ufsrestore if /dev/rmt/0n
ufsrestore > ls

probably 'r' versus 'x'.
