Unpack RAR files via SSH?

Hey folks,

I’ve got entry level knowledge of Linux commands and using SSH. I’ve been using it to move and copy files on my My Cloud EX2 Ultra while I’m away from home for a few weeks, but I’ve run into an issue where I need to unpack a .rar file but it doesn’t seem to support the basic rar/unrar commands. It simply says unrar is not found.

Does OS 5 not have support for this or am I doing something incorrect?
