- FW 6.5.1

- App: "Transmission for Readynas" 3.00.8 by Poussin

Hi there!

I've been using the Transmission App on this ReadyNAS and it's Predesessor (old Sparc Model, still works but not enough capacity) and I grew very fond of it.

I know that you have been making an adapted version and I would be willing to give it a try if it can meet my needs:

- setting the seeding speed to "0"

- any form of automated adding of torrents, preferbly RSS (extratorrent)

The first option is an absolout must. In the country I life in torrent users are hunted by lawer firms and the law says it is illegal as soon as you start to distribute (seed). On a side note- I only download torrents wich are already seeded in the thousends (popular TV torrents)

The second option may me achived by "Automatic for Bittorent" or some similiar tool.

Thank you so much for your effort and service to such a great community!

Cheers abe

According to a post on the Transmission forum you can disable seeding globally under Settings > Torrents > Seeding > Stop seeding at ratio. Set this to 0.

Would require a separate application, there's a few out there. As long as it supports Transmission's remote RPC protocol it should work fine.

When I edit /etc/settings.json in nas-tools folder it stays modified only until I restart the service. After turning off and on transimssion service, the orignal settings are being brought back. None of my changes stays after restarting. What I am doing wrong?

According to the Transmission wiki: "The client should be closed before making changes, otherwise settings will be reverted to it's previous state."

NASTools, I sent you a PM about a project request a few weeks back if you can check it and get back to me, thanks.

I'm still not able to reach the share and I'm not sure of the syntax if I want to change it.

I can see a new share called nastools-transmission but I can't access it with any account in the readynas. I've added accounts to the nastools-transmission group and restarted as well. Also tried the \download.

The default is still /apps/nastools-transmission/downloads

If I create a new share in the webUI and call it "downloads" what would the full path be from the transmissions web gui to change it to? I don't really know the inside of debian linux to know where they have put these shares.

Thanks

  Hi pfdwyer,
  
  What firmware are currently using?
  
  Might be best if you update it first. Sending a PM might also give you a faster response from the developer.
  
  ReadyNAS OS 6 Software Version 6.6.1
