Where did the tar file come from in the first place?
If you have it on the 3000, why don't you untar it there and see what's
inside.:
In the POSIX shell do:
$tar -tvf perl.tar
Also, can you do a LISTF,2 or a LISTFILE ,2 of the file on MPE and post
that?

Bruce,
I re-transferred the file again (see below). Now I am getting a
different message.
HERE IS THE FTP SYNTAX:
ftp> type tenex
200 Type set to L (byte size 8).
ftp> put c:\TheSpot\Digest-Perl-MD5-1.8.tar
ftp> /MIG/PUB/perl.tar;disc=60000000
200 PORT command ok.
150 File: /MIG/PUB/perl.tar;disc=60000000 opened; data connection will
be opened 226 Transfer complete.
ftp: 112640 bytes sent in 0.10Seconds 1137.78Kbytes/sec.
HERE IS THE NEW ERROR MESSAGE:
$ tar -xvf perl.tar
tar: opening archive "perl.tar": Implementation-defined error

How did you transfer the file to the HP?
According to the Beechglen website
http://www.beechglen.com/mpe/technotes/SFTPInstallNotes.html : Upload
all of the files you have obtained as bytestream files. To specify
bytestream using Windows FTP client, use 'type tenex' instead of 'ascii'
or
binary'. Also, some files are larger than the default file size of
2,000,000
FTP uses for bytestream files. Be sure to specify a ;DISC=xxxxxx where
'xxxxxx' is larger than the number of bytes in the file. Follow this
example. Note that there is no space between the file name and the
";disc="
parameter.
ftp> type tenex
ftp> put perl.tar.Z /tmp/perl.tar.Z;disc=60000000

try: file perl.tar
to see what it says the file is.
