Are these really tar files? From Sun you would have got zip (or jar) 
files. Did the files get renamed at some point or did you unzip them and 
tar them up (if so, why)? Can you show us output of "file 112874-44.tar"?

The command is fine. You can add --nocheckxref to make pca not try to 
get a more recent copy of the xref file and to get rid of these:

Looking at:

I'm pretty sure that the files you have are not really tar files.
