You will have to find and install a program that can handle rar files.

Have a look at this thread:

Use another OS to unrar the file and transfer it. If needed, zip or tar and gzip it.

Can anyone explain in detail

You can also get the source and compile:

Uh, get "unrar" working? What's the problem
with it? I haven't tried it on HP-UX, but
I got it working on VMS, so how tough could
it be on HP-UX?

If you have any interest to use PHP, you can use Rar::extract.

Firstly you have to build rar extention from its source code and
install rar.sl to Apache PHP extention directory. Secondly you have to
create a simple php script such as

Good luck !!
