I'm having issus sharing files.

Post by c64web »

I share using transmission-daemon a bunch of files for the Commodore 64/128 community, i have no issues downloading just sharing.

I would like to bear most of the load for the torrents were sharing , But i have noticed that on my home network the same torrent
has more seeds listed than on the remote seed-box. ?

Could i get some advice on configuring the seed-box for maximum sharing. I ssh into my box.
I'm seeding 54 files on a 10MBs connection using Debian and Transmission-daemon.

The firewall is Arno-iptables-firewall what ports are best to use. ?

The .json file is were the settings for transmission are i understand are there any others i should be looking at.

Am i in the right area to post this message.

Thanks.
Shane.

"open-file-limit": 32,
"peer-limit-global": 240,
"peer-limit-per-torrent": 60,

These are the main settings to edit, if you are seeing less seed's listed, try increasing your peer-limit-global to 500 & peer-limit-per-torrent to 140
drop open-file-limit down for testing

Just play with speeds to see what suits your connection

your iptables should just be something like this
"peer-port": 51413,


iptables -I INPUT 1 -p tcp --dport 51413 -j logaccept
