I'm trying to set up a torrent download web interface using Transmission-daemon. It's running on my internal network, so I require no authentication. Simple enough, right? Just edit the configuration file and turn authentication off:
/etc/transmission-daemon# cat settings.json | grep rpc- "rpc-authentication-required": 0, "rpc-enabled": 1, "rpc-password": "", "rpc-port": 9091, "rpc-username": "", "rpc-whitelist": "127.0.0.1,192.168.1.*", "rpc-whitelist-enabled": 1, /etc/transmission-daemon# /etc/init.d/transmission-daemon start * Starting bittorrent daemon transmission-daemon [ OK ]
Yet still:
I've tried everything to turn authentication off, yet it still appears. Extremely annoying.
Also, if Transmission is already running, and you modify the configuration file, it will be overridden when Transmission is stopped. What the hell? Transmission should just watch the configuration file and reload it when it changes on disk. That way you can edit the configuration both on disk and in the user interface.
