Password-protected zip?

I have some .zip files which I password-protected in Ubuntu. I have kept these files but I can't seem to open them in Slackware now. Any suggestions? (I remember the password of course)

Open a terminal emulator and use the unzip command with the file as the argument.
You should be prompted for a password.
