Transmission

Thanks x190. That's the problem... didn't spell the property name correctly.

I have set up my iMac with two IP addresses. One is DHCP from my router, another is 192.168.111.111. The DHCP takes precedence (listed at the top). If I do an ifconfig, I see that en0 has both addresses. A quick glance at tcpdump shows plenty of traffic with a src ip of the DHCP address.

If I do a ...

I'm not fixated on it. No one rule is going to catch all of the packets that I want to forward.

The listening port catches some. The range catches a few more. I'm moving a very large fraction of the traffic through the correct interface. I have a leak. Trying to figure out where the leak is coming ...

Aha! I finally got it.

Started a new torrent with tcpdump running... got this:

01:25:49.083490 IP my-big-long-hostname.net.60431 > swedish-chef.bork.bork.bork.bredbandsbolaget.se.6881:

Definitely bt traffic, but it's not using my new listening port as the source.

Here's what I think happens. I ...

If I run "tcpdump -i tun1 (host tracker1 or host tracker2 or host tracker)" and "tcpdump -i vlan2 (host tracker1 or host tracker2 or host tracker)" and then do a update trackers...

vlan2 shows absolutely no traffic.

tun1 (the VPN) shows traffic. It shows traffic for the ones doing http on 80, it ...

Ok. I've got a reasonably fast torrent downloading...

And if I look for ports 6881-6890 on my public interface... nada. Not a single packet. However, plenty of them on the VPN interface (and they'll always have 51413 as the other port).

If I look for port 51413 on the public interface, there are ...

I really think I am leaking my IP to trackers somehow. Haven't figured it out yet. When I switch from 51413 to something else, the leaks switch to the new port within a minute or two... those aren't old connections.

But I can't quite figure out how.

What I really need is a set of ports with which ...

I've had some initial luck doing this. I have a DD-WRT router, and I set up OpenVPN from the web gui.

The first thing that was obvious was that OpenVPN's default configuration is screwy. You'll need to add "route-nopull" to it. This will allow the VPN to start without it borking up the routing ...

I'm trying to route Transmission network through a second interface on my router with iptables, and I've been digging around with tcpdump trying to understand just what sorts of packets it will send.

I've noticed something curious (at least to me, I'm not an expert on bt protocol): the peer ...

The first has been stuck on 99.9% for years, if I believe the comments on the website. It consists of 50 or so files, only one of which is incomplete.

I found another torrent of only that file, and I have completed it at 100%, and confirmed the integrity of the file with VLC (no errors).

I have ...

It may not be after all. I think I flubbed the perl script to extract the shas from.

I have a torrent that has many files, one of which fails to complete. I have 99% of this file, but there are no seeders and it seems to have been a problem for a long time at this point.

I have found a second torrent of this file, same exact filename and apparently the same hash. There is a seeder ...
