With the troubles others have with linux and a BBS I would go that way :)

Are the ZIP files longfilenames? If so you'll need a work around... also 
what are your command lines for zip ?

This is what I have under W32

Arc 2 ZIP unzip.exe -x -C {at}    zip.exe {at}

using info's unzip v5.50

Hope this helps...there is a work around for files with longfilename 
which scott should be able to help you out with an archive... I have the 
files but not the archive he sent me b4...

Lata,
