As told by others, you need the archive

http://icculus.org/betas/bf1942/bf1942-lnxded-betaupdate-build-LastFromR
yan.tar.bz2

The EXE you refer to is a Windows binary, and since linux is not aware
of exe as an executable extention, you don't have any use for it. Linux
servers and paches for it are a whole other ballgame, which makes it so
hard to get a good server running right away

I hate to be blunt, but may I ask about your Linux experience? Running
Linux servers is great, but it requires some knowledge of linux itself
before you can start gameserver things up. Somehow I get the idea you
are just starting with it because it sounds so good. I commend you for
trying, but also I advise you to take it one step at a time. Putting up
a linux gameserver box without knowing the basics of your enviroment...
Get to know the workings of linux a little first.

Regards,
Fox.
