Transmission

I lost a hard drive the other day and had to replace it, when reinstalling
ubuntu 10.04.4 32bit, and transmission i was having
trouble getting pause and resume to work through crontab. so i added
the ppa:transmissionbt/ppa repository. but my pause and resume scripts
are not working with this version 2.77 of transmission either.



crontab entry
01 2 * * * root /usr/mysbin/transresume.sh

my script
#!/bin/sh
/usr/bin/transmission-remote -tall -s
date >> /home/klein/Desktop/tyler
echo "transmission resume" >> /home/klein/Desktop/tyler



crontab entry
01 7 * * * root /usr/mysbin/transpause.sh

my script
#!/bin/bash
/usr/bin/transmission-remote -tall -S
date >> /home/klein/Desktop/tyler
echo "transmission pause" >> /home/klein/Desktop/tyler


i have been looking at this page (http://rpm.pbone.net/index.php3/stat/45 ... ion-remote) and have tried in my terminal:
transmission-remote -tall -s
transmission-remote -tall --start

it keeps giving me this in my terminal:
Unexpected response: <h1>401: Unauthorized</h1>Unauthorized Usert: */*
Accept-Encoding: deflate, gzip
Content-Length: 41
Content-Type: application/x-www-form-urlencoded

{"arguments":{},"method":"torrent-start"}



transmission-remote -tall -S
transmission-remote -tall --stop

it keeps giving me this in my terminal:
Unexpected response: <h1>401: Unauthorized</h1>Unauthorized Usert: */*
Accept-Encoding: deflate, gzip
Content-Length: 41
Content-Type: application/x-www-form-urlencoded

{"arguments":{},"method":"torrent-stop"}

i'm not sure what to do with is i'v never seen it come up before. all
i need is to be able to start and stop all the torrents at a cretin time every night.

could some one point me in the right direction or explain what i'm doing wrong ?

thank you x190
that is quite a bit different, seems to be getting a lot more complicated .

being this has become so complicated to pause and resume transmission is there a way to go back to transmission 2.31 (12441)in ubuntu 10.04 or at least get back to something that works with cron ?
