RTorrent
I have succsefully installed and configued rTorrent.
prerequisites; root access
http://www.webos-internals.org/wiki/Tutorials_Linux_DDNS_for_EVDO
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;
- Maximum and minimum number of peers to connect to per torrent.
min_peers = 40 max_peers = 100
- Same as above but for seeding completed torrents (-1 = same as downloading)
min_peers_seed = -1 max_peers_seed = 50
- Maximum number of simultanious uploads per torrent.
max_uploads = 15
- connection_leech = seed
- Global upload and download rate in KiB. "0" for unlimited.
download_rate = 0 upload_rate = 15
- Default directory to save the downloaded torrents.
directory = /media/internal/ringtones/
- Default session directory. Make sure you don't run multiple instance
- of rtorrent using the same session directory. Perhaps using a
- relative path?
session = /media/internal/ringtones/
- Watch a directory for new torrents, and stop those that have been
- deleted.
schedule = watch_directory,10,10,load_start=/usr/www/blabla/htdocs/torrents/torrents/*.torrent schedule = tied_directory,10,10,start_tied=/usr/www/blabla/htdocs/torrents/torrents/*.torrent schedule = untied_directory,10,10,close_untied=/usr/www/blabla/htdocs/torrents/torrents/*.torrent
- Close torrents when diskspace is low.
- schedule = low_diskspace,5,60,close_low_diskspace=100M
- Stop torrents when reaching upload ratio in percent,
- when also reaching total upload in bytes, or when
- reaching final upload ratio in percent.
- example: stop at ratio 2.0 with at least 200 MB uploaded, or else ratio 20.0
- schedule = ratio,60,60,stop_on_ratio=200,200M,2000
- The ip address reported to the tracker.
- ip = 127.0.0.1
ip = my.dynamic.hostname
- The ip address the listening socket and outgoing connections is
- bound to.
- bind = 127.0.0.1
bind = my.dynamic.hostname
- Port range to use for listening.
port_range = 6881-6900
- Start opening ports at a random position within the port range.
- port_random = no
- Check hash for finished torrents. Might be usefull until the bug is
- fixed that causes lack of diskspace not to be properly reported.
check_hash = yes
- Set whetever the client should try to connect to UDP trackers.
use_udp_trackers = yes
- Alternative calls to bind and ip that should handle dynamic ip's.
- schedule = ip_tick,0,1800,ip=rakshasa
- schedule = bind_tick,0,1800,bind=rakshasa
- Encryption options, set to none (default) or any combination of the following:
- allow_incoming, try_outgoing, require, require_RC4, enable_retry, prefer_plaintext
- The example value allows incoming encrypted connections, starts unencrypted
- outgoing connections but retries with encryption if they fail, preferring
- plaintext to RC4 encryption after the encrypted handshake
- encryption = allow_incoming,enable_retry,prefer_plaintext
