rpc-password not getting hashed

Post by jcw5002 »

Hi!

I've been trying to get Transmission 1.75 (9117) to hash my rpc-password. The authentication works fine with the plain text password, but I feel uneasy leaving this in wide open on my system. I tracked down a ticket (http://trac.transmissionbt.com/ticket/1276) and saw that there have been 2 change sets delivered which fixed this. 8080 and 8085. I assume these changes are included in my build (9117) but I'm not positive.

I'm running headless on a Debian server and using settings.json to manage all of the config options. What must I do in order to get Transmisson to hash my plain text password and store the hashed version in my settings.json file?

Thanks!!
