In any case, find doesn't work that way. You were looking for the exact name there. Find supports wildcards, as long as they are in single quotes.

Code:

find ~/ -name '*.iso'

RAR_OPEN(3)								 1							       RAR_OPEN(3)

RarArchive::open - Open RAR archive

       Object oriented style (method):

SYNOPSIS

       publicstatic RarArchive RarArchive::open (string  $filename, [string  $password = NULL], [callable  $volume_callback = NULL])

DESCRIPTION

       Procedural style:
       RarArchive rar_open (string  $filename, [string	$password = NULL], [callable  $volume_callback = NULL])

	Open specified RAR archive and return RarArchive instance representing it.

       Note

	       If  opening  a multi-volume archive, the path of the first volume should be passed as the first parameter. Otherwise, not all files
	      will be shown. This is by design.

PARAMETERS

	      o $filename
		- Path to the Rar archive.

	      o $password
		- A plain password, if needed to decrypt the headers. It will also be used by default if encrypted files are found. Note that  the
		files may have different passwords in respect to the headers and among them.

	      o $volume_callback
		-  A function that receives one parameter - the path of the volume that was not found - and returns a string with the correct path
		for such volume or NULL if such volume does not exist or is not known. The programmer should ensure the  passed  function  doesn't
		cause loops as this function is called repeatedly if the path returned in a previous call did not correspond to the needed volume.
		Specifying this parameter omits the notice that would otherwise be emitted whenever a volume is not found; an implementation  that
		only returns NULL can therefore be used to merely omit such notices.

       Warning

	       Prior to version 2.0.0, this function would not handle relative paths correctly. Use realpath(3) as a workaround.

RETURN VALUES

	Returns the requested RarArchive instance or FALSE on failure.

EXAMPLES

       Example #1

	      Object oriented style

	      <?php
	      $rar_arch = RarArchive::open('encrypted_headers.rar', 'samplepassword');
	      if ($rar_arch === FALSE)
		  die("Failed opening file");

	      $entries = $rar_arch->getEntries();
	      if ($entries === FALSE)
		  die("Failed fetching entries");

	      echo "Found " . count($entries) . " files.
";

	      if (empty($entries))
		  die("No valid entries found.");

	      $stream = reset($entries)->getStream();
	      if ($stream === FALSE)
		  die("Failed opening first file");

	      $rar_arch->close();

	      echo "Content of first one follows:
";
	      echo stream_get_contents($stream);

	      fclose($stream);
	      ?>

	      The above example will output something similar to:

	      Found 2 files.
	      Content of first one follows:
	      Encrypted file 1 contents.

       Example #2

	      Procedural style

	      <?php
	      $rar_arch = rar_open('encrypted_headers.rar', 'samplepassword');
	      if ($rar_arch === FALSE)
		  die("Failed opening file");

	      $entries = rar_list($rar_arch);
	      if ($entries === FALSE)
		  die("Failed fetching entries");

	      echo "Found " . count($entries) . " files.
";

	      if (empty($entries))
		  die("No valid entries found.");

	      $stream = reset($entries)->getStream();
	      if ($stream === FALSE)
		  die("Failed opening first file");

	      rar_close($rar_arch);

	      echo "Content of first one follows:
";
	      echo stream_get_contents($stream);

	      fclose($stream);
	      ?>

       Example #3

	      Volume Callback

	      <?php
	      /* In this example, there's a volume named multi_broken.part1.rar
	       * whose next volume is named multi.part2.rar */
	      function resolve($vol) {
		  if (preg_match('/_broken/', $vol))
		      return str_replace('_broken', '', $vol);
		  else
		      return null;
	      }
	      $rar_file1 = rar_open(dirname(__FILE__).'/multi_broken.part1.rar', null, 'resolve');
	      $entry = $rar_file1->getEntry('file2.txt');
	      $entry->extract(null, dirname(__FILE__) . "/temp_file2.txt");
	      ?>
