transmission-daemonNow it all goes pear shaped after I followed the instructions on this page:
http://trac.transmissionbt.com/wiki/Scripts/initd
As soon as I tell ubuntu to start transmission using this script below; it then wont let me login to the webui, saying something about 401: unauthorised ip, make sure your on the whitelist. The trouble is if i simply launch transmission-daemon in terminal everthing works!!! Something doesn't seem right with the script.
