Remotely checking status of Transmission GUI by command-line

Post by blur »

Hello,

I have a linux box at home were I remotely connect with NX, having access to a graphical Gnome environment. I then start Transmission (graphical) and left it downloading.

Now I would like to control it's status remotely outside my home but via command-line. How can I configure transmission-remote (assuming that this executable is the solution) in order to give me the status of current downloads/uploads within this graphical session?

Thanks in advance.

Cheers

It's in the manpage and "transmission-remote --help":

transmission-remote [host:port] [options]

:D
