FTP & Extraction onto Host Server

| Hello,
Not sure if this is the adequate place to ask this sort of hard question to all test your minds.
But what I want to do it, Create a .rar file with my Information then upload this .rar to my server and then extract it on the server.
Is this possible to accomplish?
Thanks
Sean

| You can use the 'unrar' program. Login to your server through SSH and run the following commands.
yum install unrar (or apt-get, etc. depending on your distro)
unrar filename.rar

| Are you referring to what it says in WHM? You need to download a SSH client such as PuTTY and login through there.

| I'm suspecting that you only have reseller-access, so just use the cPanel File Manager for this very purpose provided that unrar is installed, which I think it is as most distro have unrar by default or else tell your provider to "yum -y install unrar".

| I don't think unrar comes installed by default on most Linux distributions.

| I recommend using 7zip. Zip it into a .tar and you should be able to untar it via file manager in your CP. Or use SSH and run the untar command.
Untar:
tar -zxvf filename.tar
