shadowandy. I have spent some time reading and trial and error. The problem I had was the shell I was using wasn’t aware of some of the variables needed. I needed to make a few scripts that set them all and then I could call them from crontab. I will make an entry on how to do it sometime, but for now I have a massive exam coming up in a few weeks and need to focus. But now, I have a transmission/clutch combo that unpauses itself at 1 am and repauses itself at 7 to take advantage of my isp’s cheap bandwidth at night.

Hey shadowandy, I have decided that a better solution is to leave everything right as it is and set a cron job to transmission-remote –start all but when I do that I get an error that says //.transmission/daemon/socket doesn’t exist. Does it need to know it’s at /mnt/HD_a2/.transmission/daemon/socket ???

is it possible to control transmission-remote from the command line while running clutch?

thanks for any help.

Dave

Hi shadowandy, thanks so much for your work on the DNS-323. The Transmission and Clutch combo is awesome. As someone who has not used this combo before, is there a way to make it automatically pick up torrent files out of a folder and start downloading them? Excuse me if this is an elementary question. My ISP has scheduled bandwidth allowances making nightime better for downloading. Thanks. Dave

Hi shadowandy, I installed it using transmission-1.11svn-r5649-ffp0.5.tgz
and it didn’t create the folder .transmission for me. Am i doing something wrong? Thanks

Chad,

The .transmission folder will be created by the executable.

TauruS,

Currently, this is the only set of instructions I could offer.

XN,

I could only compile the 1.11 after my exams.
