need source.list for server to install rar

[mojoman]

Hi, I'm running an old machine as an FTP-server using Ubuntu 6.06 server OS and glFTPd. I need to unrar some files on it in order to rename them but RAR isn't installed. I tried apt-get install rar but I get the following output:

Package rar is not available, but is referred to by another package.
This may mean that the package is missing, has been obsoleted, or
is only available from another source
E: Package rar has no installation candidate

I would rather unrar the files on the server, rename them and repack them instead of downloading them, going through the procedure and then uploading them again. I really don't have a lot of traffic on the server (it's mainly for private use) so I don't mind if some capacity is directed to this.

My guess is that it could be fixed by amending the sources.list but the various sources.list I've seen are intended for desktop/laptop. Can anyone help me out with this one?

best regards
Mojoman

Ps: My source list look like this. Ds:

rar and unrar are in multiverse.

looke here for examples: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Repositories/CommandLine


EDIT: forgot to mention: there's a unrar-free package in universe, but it doesn't open all rars.

I added multiverse after universe in my sources.list and that did the trick. Thanks for the help :D
