Setting up Clutch for Transmission
Setting up Clutch for Transmission on fonz’s fun_plug 0.5 is rather straight forward. You would need to know your TRANSMISSION_HOME folder. It would most likely be either “/mnt/HD_a2/.transmission” or “/mnt/HD_a4/.transmission”. If you are using DNS-313, most likely you will be using the latter.
Downloading the required files
Telnet to your NAS and execute the following commands
/ # cd /mnt/HD_a2
/mnt/HD_a2 # wget http://www.inreto.de/dns323/fun-plug/0.5/packages/php-5.2.6-2.tgz

Accessing your Clutch
Now surf to http://<NAS’s IP>:8080/clutch/ to use your transmission!
Note: If you encounter “Permission Denied” during the bittorrent session, execute the following command in telnet:

hmm, i follow exactly the same step, upload the torrent file but nothing happen
tried the same thing and also nothing happens after uploading a torrent using clutch web ui. any idea why?
universe@vrz,
Are you blocking any javascripts on your browser?
“Are you blocking any javascripts on your browser?”
No, javascript enable
biggercrap,
try downloading a torrent from openoffice to see if it works.
torrent frm open office works (torrent)
think it’s my torrent file that is problematic…
haiz, so how? do you know anyway to make it work?
what i realized is that after i click upload, the open file dialog does not goes away (even after a long time)
then i’ll click cancel. the file which i upload is then locked. i can’t rename nor move the file (on my local hdd).
based on other torrent, the clutch is working fine. now some queries abt clutch.
1) if say i’m downloading, then off the dns313 via the power on/off button, will the torrents get corrupted?
2) is there anyway to control the upload and download speed of transmission?
universe@vrz,
1) most bittorrent clients have hash checks so corrupted parts will get downloaded.
2) check out the options button on the lower left hand corner of clutch.
oic ic. thx
did not see the options button at the lower left corner. it’s too small on my screen. thx a lot
universe@vrz,
it’s alright. most users didn’t explore the interface. it is not the first time people asked me about it.
just splendid. I’m still fond of btdownloadcurses (bittornado), but this is almost as versatile and it is *just* the show-off item on my DNS-313!
Everybody loves a gui and this one works awesome too
sehe,
Yeap, having GUI is an advantage. I wish that Transmission would come with more features like stop seeding after it reaches a certain percentage or even control the number of concurrent torrents.
torrent frm open office also works for me(torrent), but I got a permission denied. Some torrent I dL from other website doesnt seems to load.
What port setting do u recommend? Only a single port can be used, right, seems it cant support uPNP

I keep getting permission denied errors on every torrent I try. I’ve changed permissions as suggested “chmod 0755 -R /mnt/HD_a2/torrents” but still no luck. Tested open office download and that doesn’t work, permission denied.
Keep getting the “The Transmission daemon does not appear to be running.” error. Have already tried a format+ reinstall of transmission and clutch, but to no effect. Have checked all steps carefully and there were no errors, I did it exactly as the tutorial says… with one exception. I pointed telnet to “php-5.2.6-3.tgz” instead of “…-2.tgz” manually but it installed ok. Have also tried restarting transmission and the NAS (Conceptronic CH3SNAS - similar to DNS-323) on numerous occasions but that also didn’t help. Neither did previous tips…
Plz help a NAS newb?
