Want to use same torrent data files with 2 computers

Post by TranTran »

I have 2 computers and I want to be able to run Transmission from either computer (one at a time) and have Transmission on both computers utilize the same location for its data files & storage (this will be on an external drive with file permissions "shared").

How can I set this up?

Also, how can I "reconcile" the torrent files & parts of downloaded files etc from two copies of Transmission which have been running on different computers? Essentially I want to put all the data & file parts into one location; eliminating duplicate torrents & in-progress downloads, and have any copy of Transmission I want to run go to that location find the necessary data.
