Huh? All the darn RPMs binaries are in the /RedHat/RPMS on the CD-ROM...
Easy to find, eh? To install RAR 2.0, you type the following at the shell
prompt:

rpm -Uvh ftp://ftp.redhat.com/pub/contrib/RPMS/rar-2.00b3-2.i386.rpm

While you are connected to the Internet and you are done. Tried it just
for the kick (I love RAR for DOS, having it for Linux shouldn't be a bad
thing...), took about 15 seconds here, fast Internet link...

Aww... Frag! It doesn't have the cool interface like in DOS... Bye bye!

rpm -e rar

;-)
