It's a "self extracting archive" if you will. It will need to be executed to run. Just change the permissions to allow that, then run it.
#> chmod 755 xxx.yyy.rpm.bin #> ./xxx.yyy.rpm.bin That should result in either the .rpm file being "extracted", and dropped on your hard drive, OR, it will just install it for you. I'm personaly not a huge fan of these things, but a few places are packaging them this way. Hope that helps.
