I've attempted to write a rar filter (that can scan files like I currently do zip - recursively/passwordprotected/size restraints etc) and have come up against a couple obstacles: - seems redhat provide no native support (rpm) for rars. - winrar and rarsoft provide trial linux binaries. - unrar is freeware (not sure if this is correct term?) and there are rpms available. - the only Perl module available wraps winrar i.e. it parses the rar command output. It's a bit buggy and doesn't handle the winrar linux executable output very well. Wholy inefficient. Can't handle password protected command-line output. I written half the filter but I think the best option is to block by default. __________________________________ Do you Yahoo!? Yahoo!
