How to make a private torrent in seedbox?

Post by gatomike26 »

I ended up going with a seedbox from http://www.seednet.eu/. so far I have been happy with how fast it takes to download and seed and the speed of using ftp to transfer the data from my seedbox to my pc.

My other question is how do I set up a private torrent correctly using the rutorrent software so I can send the paskey via email to someone and they can down what I have uploaded.

this is one of the main things I want this for is for overseas trades or small northamerican trades.

thanks for all the help so far guys.

http://tracker.ccc.de/announce

thanks for that info

my other question is so I use dvd decrpter to upload the dvd to my hardrive then I need to use filezilla to tranfer it to my seedbox.

where do I tranfer the data in my seedbox so I can find it to create a private torrent?

Also should my private torrent be with the torrents I'm downloading/just like say you would do if you were uploading something using Utorrent?

Also what boxes need to be checked?

Also is this pretty much the same way I would upload a torrent to a private tracker like this one/jamto this or say dimeadozen?

thanks again for all help it is very appreciated.

These trackers only for a private torrent. If you will use them on dimeadozen , metpage e.t.c. it's just will not work. All other public trackers has his own address.

About how them use via seedbox I don't know. Maybe this topic will help you https://forum.metpage.org/viewtopic.php?t=30522 , but 3 addresses I gived to you more stablе as 5 others written in this old topic.
or just ask Sjmike, he use private torrent via seedbox often, these trackers he gave to me ;)

Yes, you'd upload it to the same directory on the server as the torrents you're downloading.

You're built-in torrent client on the seedbox works just like uTorrent on your PC. You create a torrent, specify the location of the data and enter the tracker information. For public torrent sites, like Metpage, you'd upload you created torrent to the tracker and then download the file from the tracker. Similar to uTorrent, you then add this file to your seedbox and point it to the main download directory where all your other shows are. It will then start hash checking the file and begin to seed.

If you want to do a private torrent for trading, you'd create the torrent like you normally would and use the trackers specified above (with spaces in between). I've found these trackers to be the fastest and most reliable. Also, this time check the Start Seeding option so you don't have to re-add and re-point the torrent to the data. Download the torrent file and send it to the trader.

Who is your seedbox provider? I recently just switched from Seednet.EU to Pulsed Media and I'm maxing out my download connection at home and the office.
