2.21 Help! - Add the ability to shutdown Transmission sessio

Post by tman »

Hi
In 2.21 there is a new feature 'Add the ability to shutdown Transmission
sessions via RPC'
Ok..., what's this exactly? I thought that I could shutdown tr daemon remotely on rpc...but it's not, it just closes the remote session.
Somebody can confirm?
Thanks!

Tman, what version of Transmission is the Fonera build? If it's older than 2.20 it won't have this feature.

I know you said 2.21 in the Subject line, but I didn't think Fonera had upgraded to 2.21 yet.
