RE: CentOS 5 and bittorrent

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]



rTorrent is a console-based BitTorrent client. It aims to be a
fully-featured and efficient client with the ability to run in the
background using screen

If I install screen, I can start it and leave it in the background when I
close SSH, right?
I've not used it before, but am installing it (screen) now (it's in base)
Anyone have some tips...
Can't believe I haven't looked for this before....

you can get rtorrent from dag:

http://dag.wieers.com/rpm/packages/rtorrent/

here's the User Guide:

http://libtorrent.rakshasa.no/wiki/RTorrentUserGuide

if you've already downloaded, just copy the ISOs into your download location
before you fire up the torrent; your client should detect that the torrent
is already completely downloaded and start seeding it.  configure the client
to seed forever, and you'll make a lot of people happy.
