Re:Transmission How To 2 Years ago
I have transmisson working excelently but I can only seem to access the web interface from my lan. My problem is now I added the exception port 9091 into the incoming firewall but I can't access it remotely. I there something in here restricting that?

Re:Transmission How To 2 Years ago

I followed the instructions and hit a small snag. "rpm -ivh curl-devel-7.16.4-8.el5.i386.rpm" failed as follows:

Code:

rpm -ivh curl-devel-7.16.4-8.el5.i386.rpm

It looks like it did not want to install the new package over the old. The solution was to remove the old rpm first:

Code:

rpm -e curl-devel

and then proceed as before.

I have majorly hacked the init.d script so you do not need to install the start-stop-daemon. Instead it uses the standard COS (and RHEL/CentOS/FC?) start up routines. As before, create the file /etc/init.d/transmission-daemon and paste the following into it:

Code:

#! /bin/sh

### BEGIN INIT INFO

# Short-Description: Start the transmission BitTorrent daemon client.

#

# chkconfig: 2345 90 91

# description: Start up transmission-daemon

If anyone has any comments about the script, please ask. I am still learning and a lot was copied (un-tested) from the original script and I am happy to make changes.

One other thing I did differently to bartsidee was instead of changing rpc-whitelist-enabled in settings.json, I changed rpc-whitelist to allow my LAN subnet.

I've got this far and I've managed to download a torrent which I found on one site. How do you download a torrent found on a site like isohunt? All managed to download was the tracker file!

To anyone following this thread, I've made a couple of changes to the above script of mine to correct minor errors.

Re:Transmission How To 1 Year, 12 Months ago

I've edited my start-up script again.

Change:

Code:

ps -fe | grep $DAEMON | head -n1 | cut -d" " -f 6 > ${PIDFILE}

Code:

ps -fe | grep $DAEMON | head -n1 | awk '{print $2}' > ${PIDFILE}

The original code snippet I found in the internet was failing if the process ID was only 4 digits long.

Re:Transmission How To 1 Year, 11 Months ago

Hi all

Grate how to, thought id give it a go!

Got a problem and thats when i go to the Trasmission page, all i get is

403: Forbidden
Unauthorized IP Address.

Either disable the IP address whitelist or add your address to it.

If you're editing settings.json, see the 'rpc-whitelist' and 'rpc-whitelist-enabled' entries.

If you're still using ACLs, use a whitelist instead. See the transmission-daemon manpage for details.

in my web browser. Unfortunatly im not on the local lan and wont be untill next week some time. I am connected via openVPN though so i dident think this would matter.

Iv looked at my config and tryed a few things but have not got any where. Iv check the internet and looks fairly common but none of the fix's iv found have helped.

Re:Transmission How To 1 Year, 11 Months ago
Hey Parker, look at teh whitelist in your settings, maybe that is restricting you, you could also try to add a proxy to apache, in that case you could also acces transmission over https

Re:Transmission How To 1 Year, 11 Months ago
Hey Duncan, Try to set your whitelist settings to false: "rpc-whitelist-enabled": false, and look if it helps, ofcourse restart transmission after that

You could also check user rights to the settings file, because transmission will use a default one if it doesn't find or have access the one supplied in your startup script
