Subject: RE: rar2john problem with old DOS rars

> Is it possible to commit the code update you did now (--experimental-commentheader or something like that) so I can also use it on other files? Thanks!

I believe I have found a 'simple' way to handle these.  It still does not handle all possible types of rar files (I bet files with paths and other stuff will fail). BUT I think it is a trivial fix that can get us past this issue, until we get a full parser for all 'header' types that can be in a rar file, so that the tool can properly walk the headers, looking for the right data.

Jim.
