    I used this guide and it is a very good guide.
    But the one problem that I have is with webui
    it will not work I have a SSL URL.
    In the read me of webui it said


    RUNNING THE WEBUI OVER HTTPS (SSL)
    ----------------------------------

    * Open µTorrent and go to the WebUI settings (Preferences -> Advanced -> Web UI)
    * Enable the "Alternative listening port" and change it to any port that you want (this port should not be forwarded in your firewall and/or router)
    * In the "Restrict access to the following IPs" enter "127.0.0.1" (without quotes). This is basically to prevent anybody from accessing the WebUI over HTTP
    * Now you'll have to install Stunnel. You can get the latest version from their website (http://www.stunnel.org/download/binaries.html)
    * After installing Stunnel, open up the stunnel.conf file
    * Under the "; Service-level configuration" comment you can remove all settings except from the "[https]" setting
    * Uncomment the "[https]" setting by removing the semi-colons in front of each line. You may change "https" to "webui" if you'd like
    * The "accept" setting is the port which a browser will try to connect to. So, this is the port that you will have to forward in your firewall and/or router (443 is the default SSL port, but it can changed)
    * The "connect" setting should be changed to the port that you entered as the alternative listening port in µTorrent
    * Start Stunnel, open up your browser, and navigate to https://ip:[Stunnel accept port]/gui/

    N.B: Changing the alternative listening port while using the WebUI is obviously not going to work to your advantage


    Now I did try this and I still can get it to work
    Anyone ever have this happen to them.

    Can I use something else (install Firefox) on the server?
    Hope I put this in the right area If not please move it
    Thanks,
