The internal rar module does not support rar extensions in newer rar
versions for files larger than 2gib. If you have the rar or unrar tool
installed, you can use the extfs rar module, just use "...rar#uextrar"
instead of using only the hash. This module is available in the latest
version 1.0.3.

Best Regards,

Ralf
