How long does it take to get the server information sent to your email address after the guy says "done"?

Just about the 30 minute mark.

If i buy that server, do i definitely get 12 months free? Or is it like a competition? And does it renew payment every month if not?

Thanks.

Hmm, I've been waiting like 4 hours...

Update:

Downloading a DVD from TL at 6MB/S

Questions, questions, questions:

1. How do I re-run utorrent on the Kimi box? (I had to go through MC to double click on the utorrent exe), wine utorrent.exe says "module not found"

2. It has another drive, Z drive (dev/sda2), how do I navigate to that drive, create a directory (mkdir) Torrents and get utorrent to download the torrents there?

3. How do I get there (the Z Drive or dev/sda2) via WinSCP and drag them back to my PC thej delete the files/directory?

How do I file manage with utorrent & WinSCP basically?

Oh how a GUI has made us all lazy these days

1. No idea what you are saying. Seems you are running utorrent in vnc. I'd suggest you to install a windows manager to have the basic control. Easiest way:

yum install fluxbox
nano ~/.vnc/xstartup
delete all the text in this file, type "fluxbox", save and quit
restart vncserver

2. Type "df" to see where the sda2 partition is mounted, most likely it's /home. Then you can set utorrent to save stuff there.

3. Once you know where sda2 is from step 2, just browse to it in Winscp to transfer/delete. I think utorrent move files into the Trash by default, that would be in ~/.local/share/Trash, there's a setting somewhere to make it permanently delete data in advanced preferences.

1. Yes - in VNC, will try & implement your recommendations and see if that improves it.

2. It was in /home - so defaulted to there, happy with that now, I can see where the shit is going, and I have room to download again!

3. - Thanks - will follow it through

cheers for the reply

SgtMajor friend how is your new server running

SgtMajor friend how is your new server running

It's running perfect, I know it was only 1 film from TL, but I got it to 8+MB/s down, 5+MB/s up - but there are not that many peers left, so I reckon I could push it to the max!

150GB hard disk free seedbox for 12 months, why would I complain anyway

I still don't like the way utorrent looks though via vnc, and there must be a way to execute it easier (I still have to find it via browsing & double clicking on the file - and I do this through MC) & I want to increase window size & the way looks, but that is cosmetic.

And is there a way to change admin passwords?

[jam0980tr]

thats good friend i hope you fixes everything and it runs sweet

I don't know if it's the same way on fedora server

well on my linux server i do this command


*passwd* change the pass and it will ask you 2nd time do the same and its changed

I wanna try that 2Gbp server lol
