Well, the "Ark" program handles .zip, .tar.gz, and .rar, and might be installed on your system already. Are there any other formats you need?

You would have to get an "ark" rpm and then install it. THen procede to read the manual by typing in "man ark"... if that doesnt solve yor problems then please come back!
