Ok I think I have most of the bits done. I'm just not clear on how to get the rutorrent service to automatically start when the NAS powers on...
edit: never mind it does auto starts - just takes a bit longer :D
edit2: It starts automatically some of the times?
edit3: The times it does start, I actually need to to stop and start the service via frontview, so I dont get the "Bad link to rTorrent. Check if it is really running. Check $scgi_port and $scgi_host settings in config.php and scgi_port in rTorrent configuration file" error message. On restarting it, everything is fine...
edit4: I actually have worked out, it is not starting automatically, even though on some occasions frontview gives the impression (green dot checked box) that it has. If I click on apply in this state ( green dot and checked box) it reports that the service is started and I can then connect as normal. What do I do to get it started automatically - this is the only thing not working for me now??
edit5: Last edit, I promise :D To finish this story, I just ended up uninstalling ruTorrent, then reinstalling it, which broke it and Transmission, I then uninstalled Transmission, reinstalled NVX firmware, and then reinstalled Transmission. Both were then working. I edited and set up all the necessary files for ruTorrent, and tested a restart of the NAS several times - ruTorrent starts automatically and also maintains it settings etc. All seems well now, both Transmission and ruTorrent work without a problem and that hopefully will be the end of my 'saga' and I can start enjoying some automatic downloading...... :rofl: Thanks to all the people that posted there steps here.
