linux bittorrent client?

[Chewy]

I tried cTorrent on my seedbox, it never works unfortunately.

Can anyone recommend me another client?

im using it via SSH.

I dunno anything about Linux, but rTorrent works on most trackers and is used for Linux seedboxes IIRC...

Someone give this man BMTV.... :)

did you try to run uTorrent in linux via Wine emulator and did you try azureus for linux?

[Chewy]

i dunno how to install win via SSH, and it wouldnt do any good seeing how uTorrent is not Text-Based. I'm using SSH so it much be text based :|

[Spartan04]

if you are running Ubuntu you can get Azureus from the repositories.

im running red hat :|

also, I need ncurses for rtorrent. I cant find the library for ncurses :|

is torrentvolve any good? It looks awesome O_O

maybe transmission will work

i got torrentflux working :D

but does anyone have issues with it on nCore and DB? It doesnt connect to DB peers and for nCore it will hit 99% then go back down to 97 and stuff.. but still seeds and dl, but with alotta errors :|

sounds like it doesn't have the ability to block peers that send bad data.
be careful. this may result in huge downloads and could mess up your ratio.

I myself never ever use torrentflux anymore. It kills any server because of buggy bittornado. Try this one: http://www.thewulong.com/w3btorrent/?page=torrents
at least it's more server friendly. btw you may feel some problems with your browser that's because of AJAXified script!

Try uTorrent via wine or kTorrent.

When i run linux (Ubuntu 7.04) i use Deluge for torrents.. thinks its pretty nice

i tried torrentvolve, it hangs when logging in :|

I have only found rtorrent and torrentleech to work on keyweb.de vps and torrentleech drives me nuts(512 RAM NOT enough for 1 DVD-R!) anyone using something else on keyweb?

[Chewy]

i tried a few apps, none worked :|

rtorrent+libtorrent is a easypeasy to set up. it took me about 20 minutes to do it the first time on ubuntu.

i used this guide - How to Install the Latest Version of rTorrent - A guide for installing the latest stable version of rTorrent on Ubuntu. - Softpedia (http://news.softpedia.com/news/How-to-Install-the-Latest-Version-of-rTorrent-51166.shtml)

that link isnt for the latest stable version though, all you need to do is change the version numbers to the latest.

it couldnt be easier.

once installed you have to learn to use rtorrent, which takes a bit of getting used to, but its really very straightforward after a little while.

you also need to learn how to configure rtorrent by setting up the .rtorrent.rc file - just google for that, theres loads of info out there.

you can also try azureus but its not the latest version in the repositories, so will be classed as a banned client on a lot of private trackers (BMTV for example).

i tell you what chewey, if you invite me to RevTT, i'll set up your seedbox for you. ;)
