Hello Jude, I quote below the main part of the answer I received from B Watson. He is not registered to this list so please CC him in your further posts on this topic. > Argh.

I confirm that for Slint as well, and we do have the sysctl command that can handle this file, as noted in "man sysctl" So to avoid these errors or warnings: > [2018-05-03 14:39:36.371] UDP: Failed to set receive buffer: requested 4194304, got 425984 > [2018-05-03 14:39:36.371] UDP: Please add the line "net.core.rmem_max = 4194304" to /etc/sysctl.conf > [2018-05-03 14:39:36.371] UDP: Failed to set send buffer: requested 1048576, got 425984 > [2018-05-03 14:39:36.371] UDP: Please add the line "net.core.wmem_max = 1048576" to /etc/sysctl.conf I wrote this as root: echo "net.core.rmem_max = 4194304 >> /etc/sysctl.conf echo "net.core.wmem_max = 1048576" >> /etc/sysctl.conf sysctl -p The latter command's output is, as expected: net.core.wmem_max = 1048576 net.core.rmem_max = 4194304 Then this command: transmission-cli -w /tmp http://www.slackware.com/torrents/slackware64-14.2-install-dvd.torrent ran without errors. Let us know if that works for you as well.

I get a couple errors when it starts up I think I can turn off by disabling port mapping with the -M option. Apparently transmission-cli expects to be on systemd machines because both error messages want /etc/sysctl.conf to be updated and have lines added to it. I don't know what to do for system v systems. Also, I don't know what port mapping would get me if it were enabled as well as disabled. Transmission-cli runs after these errors though. >> >> >> >> -- >> >> _______________________________________________ >> Blinux-list mailing list >> Blinux-list@xxxxxxxxxx >> https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/blinux-list >> > > _______________________________________________ > Blinux-list mailing list > Blinux-list@xxxxxxxxxx > https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/blinux-list > _______________________________________________ Blinux-list mailing list Blinux-list@xxxxxxxxxx https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/blinux-list
