I'm pretty sure that zip works fine. 

tar & SuSE in 2.1 has issues. 

Note that getting the bug fixed is as easy as installing this file:

http://install.loncapa.org/cgi-bin/cvsweb.cgi/~checkout~/loncom/cgi/decompress.pl?rev=1.16;content-type=text%2Fplain

as

/home/httpd/cgi-bin/decompress.pl

I highly suggest getting the new decompress.pl installed instead.
