n00b question about transmission-remote -l

Post by RootlessAgrarian »

greetings all more experienced users (which is everyone) --

I've been googling around and have not yet found any key to the output fields for transmission-remote -l

specifically the last few fields

... 100% seeding at 250 KiB/s [6.66]

the last number in square brackets -- is that the upload/download ratio, i.e. has this torrent now been seeded at 6.66:1?

in other words, can I stop seeding now? :-)

I'm also having difficulty connecting to the http dashboard for transmission-daemon but I suspect this has to do with my vserver and iptables. getting a "connection refused" on port 9091 every time, whether trying the python transmission-cli or an external connection via web browser. trying to use iptables to permit connections to that port but no joy so far. if any debian user has an insight into this, a word of advice would be gratefully received, but for now I can muddle along with transmission-remote -l :-)

What version are you using?

Because recent versions output a nice head of table:

Code: Select all

ID     Done       Have  ETA           Up    Down  Ratio  Status       Name
and there is nothing like you describe, the 100% is under the 2nd column, the Seeding is under Status, and the ratio... obviously in its own column and no square brackets.

And if your version is too old, it probably doesn't even have a Web client... before 1.34? (I don't remember) you needed to set up clutch.
