Local unrar
I would like an option to locally unrar/zip something, because when compressed files are stored on the NAS they must be copied back to my server for decompression. This is okay for small files, or ...

Just FYI, but my readynas 4.2.18 pro 6 had unrar already installed. At least I don't think it got pulled in from what I installed (unless tonido did it).

Thanks for the reply. I'm really looking to automate my entire downloading, unraring, sorting process -- the only problem I'm having is that it takes about 40 minutes to unrar a 720p TV episode from my computer -- so if I can properly automate the unrar locally on the NAS, everything should go much more smoothly.
