Hi,
I've recently been trying to set up my new Raspberry Pi 3 as a torrent seedbox/plex server. I've managed to get Deluge and Plex Media Server working great, and my external hdd is mounted correctly in the pi. I set up a Samba share so I could access the files on my external hdd from my Ubuntu laptop. I can access the files on the hdd and have full read/write access through my laptop fine through Ubuntus file manager. What I would like to be able to do which I can't right now is unrar rar archives on my hdd through my laptop. When I try to unrar using Ubuntus archive manager I get an error that the r00 r01 etc etc files aren't recognised.
Is there any way to unrar through the Samba share? If not what would be the easiest way of unraring files on the hdd remotely from my laptop?
Thanks in advance!
