Hello there.

I have a seedbox and want to share it with some friends.

But i dont want them to be able to change settings from webui.
Is there any way to disable this option ?

I will give them webui and ftp account.

I have seen webui´s that dont have settings button in webui.

tell them that if they change any setting you'll come to their house and stick it in their pooper

Yea if they are your friends, then they should listen to you when you tell them not to change any settings.

I have an edited version of webui that I use. It has things like forced start and settings removed. The button is still there but clicking doesn't work.

If you want it let me know.

But, what about webUI? Well, you can install the WebUI through SSH, but since lots of people asked me about how to get files from their box to their HDD, I'll just teach you how to do it using SFTP.
On uTorrent, go to preferences and on the side tree, go to Advanced >> WebUI - tick Enable Web Interface and also, put your desired username and password for the webUI.
I also recommend putting an alternative port (8080 is fine).
Now, use your FTP client and login to your server. Put SFTP as the mode, put in the hostname/IP and port should be the default 22.
Boom! You should see all the files in your server now.
Browse to /root/.wine/drive_c/windows/profiles/root/Application Data/uTorrent/
Get WebUI (http://download.utorrent.com/beta/webui_v0.310_beta_2.rar) and extract webui.zip. Now, transfer webui.zip to the directory that I specified above (through SFTP of course). Btw, you usually just to drag and drop the file.
Voila! WebUI is installed.

Prilost, what do your post have to do with the question posed in the first post?


edit:
you need to edit the index.html and javascript files in webui.zip to remove the to access the options.
