RTorrent
I have succsefully installed and configued rTorrent.
prerequisites
2. Next steps
3. Tutorials Linux DDNS for EVDO
If you have the prerequisites taken care of, login and do the following.....
sudo -i
ipkg-opt install rtorrent
plus install the 3 optional components. adduser, screens....
then, create an .rtorrent.rc file. i placed mine in my home directory. /var/home/s4mb4/.rtorrent.rc
here is the config file;
min_peers = 40
max_peers = 100
min_peers_seed = -1
max_peers_seed = 50
max_uploads = 15
download_rate = 0
upload_rate = 1
directory = /media/internal/ringtones/
session = /media/internal/ringtones/
schedule = watch_directory,10,10,load_start=/media/internal/ringtones/*.torrent
schedule = tied_directory,10,10,start_tied=/media/internal/ringtones/*.torrent
schedule = untied_directory,10,10,close_untied=/media/internal/ringtones/*.torrent
ip = my.dynamic.hostname
bind = my.dynamic.hostname
port_range = 6881-6900
check_hash = yes
use_udp_trackers = yes
start it up by running;
sudo -i
rtorrent -n -o import=/var/home/s4mb4/.rtorrent.rc
an alternative to issuing the command above is to link or copy the .rtorrent.rc file to the directory where you launch rtorrent from. Since after login and issuing the sudo -i command i always end up at;
root@castle:/var/home/root#
i just did the following;
ln /var/home/s4mb4/.rctorrent.rc .rtorrent.rc
then just run the command;
rtorrent
