Support unrar when installed

[chr1831]

I uploaded a rar (I archived using the wrong format), and I came to realize that cPanel does not support unrar. I do not see why you guys do not add it as a support feature to the file manager if it's already installed on the system. I am not saying that you should ship with unrar by default, but leave it up to the sysadmin to pick to install it or not.

Thanks,

I agree with you.

Most users need RAR & UNRAR functions in cPanel File Manager.

Yes, i also would support adding RAR ... I don't see often, but often enough to want it in cpanel ...

Hello,
Rar files created by winrar is a best to compress files with good compression ratio. But, there is no support for rar files in cpanel, what about adding .rar file support to cpanel? So, we can extract and compress files? Unrar.dll and other files are avail. for free at winrar homepage, just need a good programmer...

Thanks for reading, comment please.

rar/winrar needs glibc v2.7 not sure if most distros supported by cpanel have that version, centos 5.7 comes with glibc v2.5
