Torrentflux stopped connecting to torrents
I have been using Torrentflux for months with no problems at all. The other week my torrents stopped connecting to the trackers (new ones and existing ones). The error message I get is warning - crypto library not installed. I have googled this error and found the resolution for linux desktop users http://www.torrentflux.com/forum/index.php?topic=3715.0 - they need to install python-crypto, although I am usure how to get this onto the ReadyNAS.
I have also tried disabling the Only allow encrypted connections and the Stealth crypto options from within Torrentflux's settings and this doesn't help.
Does anyone know how to get python-crypto onto the ReadyNAS or is anyone else aware of an alternate fix for this?
Update: this only appears to be happening on newly downloaded torrent files. Is anyone else having this problem?

- I will check
did you try transmission ? transmission is up to date and more comaptible with last trackers version - Hi, I had the problem with Transmission first, then tried Torrentflux.
- This problem looks like it is a problem with trackers from ilovetorrents.com other trackers I have tried appear to be OK.
- Does anyone know how to update python-crypto onto the ReadyNAS. I have the Apt plugin installed and I have read on the Torrentflux forums to update the python-crypto files with apt-get install python-crypto http://www.torrentflux.com/forum/index.php?topic=4040.msg22047. I am hesitant in running this apt get command because of this warning on the ReadyNAS webste: http://www.readynas.com/?p=145 "Please note that you can get your ReadyNAS into peril easily by overriding some of the system libraries and utilities. Do not do your development on a system you don’t have a backup of as you may end up re-installing the firmware or worse yet, doing a factory default."
super-poussin do you think I will brick my ReadyNAS if I run apt-get install python-crypto ? - For the problem whit crypto-lib
