Ubuntu: Create rar-archives
by admin on May.22, 2010, under Linux (Ubuntu)
If you want to create rar-archives in Linux, you’re required to have WinRAR already installed. If you don’t know how to do that, you should read this article.
In order to create a rar-archive and specify which files should be included, use the following command line (archive-name will be test.rar):
rar a test.rar thisismyfile.txt
You might want to append the best compression (m1=no compression ; m5=best compression):
rar a test.rar -m5 thisismyfile.txt
If you also would like to password protect your files + filenames, use the following line (The password of the file will be: [password] ):
rar a -m5 -hp[password] test.rar thisismyfile.txt
If you’d also like to split your archive at a specified filesize, use the following line (which splits the archive as soon it reaches a size of 2000 MegaBytes):
rar a -m5 -hp[password] -v2000M test.rar thisismyfile.txt
