Compressing a directory with rar on Linux

I've been struggling to get this to work for so long that when I finally got it going I had to throw it up here so I wouldn't lose it.
rar a -m5 -R output.rar /etc/

This will create a max compression (not taking into account dictionary sizes and the like) archive of the entire etc directory.
