Hi all,
I have this little problem when using OVH seedbox...
When I used to use hosting-ie, they gave me 4 different ip address, and all of the ip address was working fine, whenever I connect to the tracker from IP address A then it displays IP address A, from IP address B then it displays IP address B, etc.

But when I use OVH, I put the same setting for /etc/networking/interfaces in Debian. But from whatever IP address I connect, it always displays the main IP address (eth0)

How can I fix this ? Please help me...

Which trackers do allow several passkey connect from one IP address ?


Thanks a lot guys....

you need to request them from ovh. its called ip fail over in ovh manager.

ovh have to do each ip manually, and you can only request one IP at a time. I've been waiting 4 days for my 3rd ip.

yes, I requested it and already got 2 additional ip address, I put in /etc/network/interfaces... the 2 ip's up, but whenever I try to connect to the tracker it always detect the main ip

It's not magic.
You need to set up your firewall (to edit packets on-the-fly) or your bt client (to report a specific IP address to the trackers). Otherwise, you'll only report the default ip address.

well, could you be more specific ? Cause I don't think activate the firewall would be the answer
