The defaults should be fine (unless you changed them). See here for details:
http://synchro.net/docs/file_section.html#ExtractableFiles

The first thing *I* would do, if it were my BBS, would be to logon and attempt
to view a .ZIP file in the file areas and see if that works. Then attempt
extracting a file in your file areas, uploading a file to your file areas
(which should run "pkunzip -t" to test it) and/or uploading a .REP packet.

Of course, it'd also be a good idea to copy and paste your SCFG->File
Options->Extractable Files->ZIP settings here for anything obvious I could see.
