Transmission and SSL trackers
Hi all
First time poster, long time reader.
Was wondering if any work has been done to get Transmission to work with HTTPS and SSL trackers
Have enjoyed a wonderful relationship with my ReadyNAS Duo, Transmission and a torrent site who have now moved to HTTPS and my trackers have stopped working. I've tried everything I can find on the net, with port forwarding, firewalls, configurations etc. Finally after many hours of frustration I installed uTorrent to run from my PC and it runs perfectly. That only leads me to believe that Transmission is failing me.
Would appreciate any advice on this as I prefer to shut my PC down at night and let Transmission seed for me. I see there's some workarounds for ubuntu version but cannot find anything for this daemon.
Regards
Pixie.

- I just made this for you:

It was too big to fit on this page:
Im sorry for how cryptic it is
However you have 3 options in my opinion (all include not using transimission because Im familiar with rutorrent/rtorrent)
1) install rutorrent/rtorrenton debian and point at this NAS as download path (My code really covers this point of view)
2) install rutorrent/rtorrenton this NAS and download to NAS (you can adjust my code to fit for this if your versed in linux - REMEMBER CRASHING THE NAS IN ROOT SSH WILL VOIDS WARRANTY)
3) find a rutorrent/rtorrent addon online - but it costs money and is only for certain architectures
Remember you can check your architecture by looking at your firmware
4.1.x - SPARC
4.2.x - INTEL
5.3.x - ARM - I really appreciate the quick response kossboss. I'll have a look through your guide. I'm not versed in linux (at all) although I have dipped my little toe into it previously. My firmware is 4.1.10(SPARC) so that's a good start.
As my NAS is more valuable to me as a NAS (might also still be under warranty) and not a small black paper weight I'll be treading very ligthly.
Kind regards
Pixie - The Duo has a 3 year warranty. Installing an add-on is a good option.
