Hello.

A torrent client can always be useful (naturally only for legal purposes), so let’s proceed

sudo apt-get install transmission-daemon

By doing this, we’ll install a daemon (always active), to stop it

sudo service transmission-daemon stop

Once stopped, let’s take the opportunity to configure it

sudo nano /etc/transmission-daemon/settings.json

where

“download-dir” = full path where to save your downloads

“download-limit” = number of simultaneous downloads

“download-limit-enabled” = number of downloads, 1 enabled, 0 disabled

“incomplete-dir” = full path where to save incomplete downloads

“incomplete-dir-enabled” = if 1 enables the incomplete downloads folder, with 0 disables

“peer-port” = port for peers

“peer-port-random-on-start” = with “true”, at each daemon start, it changes the port and chooses a random one, with “false” the port doesn’t change

“rpc-password” = password for access to the web interface

“rpc-port” = port for remote access

“rpc-username” = username for access to the web interface

“rpc-whitelist” = whitelist with addresses enabled to access the web interface

“speed-limit-down” = limit for download (measured in KB/s)

“speed-limit-down-enabled” = enables the download limit with “true”, with “false” it’s unlimited

“speed-limit-up” = limit for upload (measured in KB/s)

“speed-limit-up-enabled” = enables the upload limit with “true”, with “false” it’s unlimited

“start-added-torrents” = with “true” as soon as torrent files are added the download starts, with “false” the start is manual

“trash-original-torrent-files” = with “true” the .torrent files are deleted once added, with “false” they aren’t

“upload-limit” = number of simultaneous uploads

“upload-limit-enabled” = with 1 enables the limit, with 0 disables it

Once completely configured, start the daemon

sudo service transmission-daemon start

Bye!
